Case Study: Cornerstone achieves real-time legal spend visibility with Apperio

Cornerstone saves 25–30% of legal team time with Apperio

The customer, Cornerstone, a UK mobile infrastructure services company, faced a significant challenge in gaining visibility and control over its legal spend due to a high volume of matters handled by external law firms. Phil Warren, Head of Legal and Compliance, sought a solution from the vendor Apperio that could provide real-time transparency into this spending, rather than just an e-billing system.

By implementing Apperio's platform, Cornerstone gained real-time visibility into its legal spend across thousands of instructions. This allowed for data-driven rate negotiations, the enforcement of billing guidelines, and a reduction in administrative tasks. Apperio's solution saved the legal team 25-30% of its time previously spent tracking information and enabled more strategic, proactive management of external counsel.
