Case Study: King & Wood Mallesons achieves faster, more accurate contract review with VisibleThread VT Docs

Global Law Firm King & Wood Mallesons Leads In Digital Transformation With Innovative Technology

King & Wood Mallesons, a top-tier international law firm, faced the challenge of performing highly time-consuming and error-prone manual contract analysis. Their legal teams spent excessive hours manually searching through high volumes of contracts and legislation to identify obligations and clauses, a process that was inefficient and risked missing critical requirements. They turned to VisibleThread and its VT Docs platform to address this challenge.

By implementing VisibleThread VT Docs, the firm could quickly identify key clauses and obligations using customizable search dictionaries, dramatically speeding up review times. The solution's ability to "shred" documents into a spreadsheet format also allowed for efficient compliance management. The measurable impact was significant, including a 70% time saving on a 100-page contract review and hundreds of hours saved on a pro-bono legislative analysis project. VisibleThread provided greater accuracy, instilled confidence in their reviews, and played a key role in the firm's digital transformation.
