Case Study: K&L Gates achieves streamlined workflows and competitive advantage with Litera Microsystems' Litera Desktop

K&L Gates Finds Competitive Advantage and Streamlines Workflows with Litera Desktop

K&L Gates, a fully integrated global law firm with more than 40 offices, struggled with inconsistent document workflows, regional tool sprawl, and slow adoption of disparate drafting solutions—challenges that increased costs and risked falling short of client expectations. To standardize workflows and boost efficiency, K&L Gates turned to Litera Microsystems and its Litera Desktop solution.

Litera Microsystems implemented Litera Desktop as a single, integrated ribbon inside Microsoft Word (including features like Clause Companion), consolidating five separate vendors into one. The deployment centralized drafting, proofreading, comparison and content-reuse tools, increased firm-wide adoption, sped up document cleaning/checking/comparing, reduced time partners and attorneys spend on formatting and quality checks, simplified IT procurement and updates with global simultaneous releases, and improved scalability and client service.
