Case Study: Obermayer Rebmann Maxwell & Hippel LLP improves attorney timekeeping and work visibility with Laurel

Obermayer Rebmann Maxwell & Hippel LLP rolls out Laurel firmwide in weeks and captures time more consistently

Obermayer Rebmann Maxwell & Hippel LLP, a full-service law firm, faced a significant challenge in getting its attorneys to consistently and accurately capture their billable time. The firm sought a solution that would integrate naturally into their existing workflows. After a thorough evaluation process by an internal AI committee, the firm selected Laurel as their vendor to address this timekeeping problem.

Laurel's implementation involved a carefully managed rollout that generated strong internal advocacy, leading to high adoption rates. The solution provided attorneys with a clear activity log of their day, making it easy to convert actions into time entries. As a result, attorneys began capturing billable work they would have otherwise forgotten and even improved their work habits, with one partner stating Laurel made him a better attorney. The transition was nearly seamless, and the firm successfully turned off its previous system, achieving a significant positive change in how attorneys work.
