Case Study: Morris, Manning & Martin, LLP achieves 80% automated contract review and accelerates a $1B+ M&A in one week with eBrevia

How our AI Contract Analytics Platform Accelerated a $1B M&A Transaction for an International Law Firm

Morris, Manning & Martin, LLP, an AM Law 200 firm representing the seller in a >$1 billion M&A, faced a one-week deadline to perform sell-side diligence on 1,200–1,400 documents. Having piloted eBrevia, the firm engaged the eBrevia AI Contract Analytics platform by DFIN to supplement manual review and meet the client’s time constraints.

After a 30-minute training session, eBrevia’s AI extracted relevant clauses and populated disclosure schedules so attorneys could focus on higher‑level analysis, completing about 80% of the contract work and enabling the firm to meet the deadline. eBrevia also provided exportable data, tagging for quality checks and a project dashboard to monitor progress; the vendor’s solution delivered major time savings (eBrevia cites 30–90% faster than manual review) and improved accuracy, and Morris, Manning & Martin plan to reuse eBrevia for future diligence.
