Everlaw and Legora have announced a technology partnership that will allow litigation teams to access documents stored in Everlaw directly within Legora’s drafting and collaboration environment.
The integration is designed to close the gap between the discovery and drafting phases of litigation. Under the arrangement, attorneys working in Legora — whether on witness statements, deposition questions or trial briefs — will be able to surface relevant documents from Everlaw without leaving the Legora platform.
The companies say the connection will maintain a single source of evidentiary record, eliminating manual exports and imports between the two systems.
A notable aspect of the integration is its approach to access controls. Each Legora user will only be able to access documents they already have permission to view in Everlaw, preserving the permission governance that litigation teams require when working with sensitive case materials.
The partnership combines Legora’s legal research assistant with Everlaw’s AI Deep Dive feature, which is designed to query large document sets to surface relevant evidence.
Everlaw’s Deep Dive tool has been a focus of the company’s recent product momentum; the company reported in March that adoption of the feature was accelerating among law firms and corporate legal teams.
Greg Marliave, vice president of product at Everlaw, said that the partnership is a recognition that litigation teams use different tools for different parts of their workflow.
“Each organization has different tools they use for legal drafting,” he said in an announcement, “and we are excited to work with Legora to connect the data insights Everlaw provides to each litigator’s preferred workflow for legal drafting.”
Adrian Parlow, vice president of product at Legora, emphasized the evidentiary grounding the integration is intended to provide.
“This integration brings the factual record directly into the drafting and legal analysis process,” he said, “so attorneys can produce work product that is precise, consistent, and grounded in the evidence their teams have already gathered and reviewed.”
Legora’s legal AI platofrm is used by legal professionals at more than 1,000 law firms and in-house legal teams across more than 50 countries, the company says. Its customer list includes White & Case, Goodwin, Debevoise & Plimpton, Cleary Gottlieb, and others.
Everlaw says customers of its platform include Fortune 100 corporate counsel, 91 of the Am Law 200, and all state attorneys general.
The integration is expected to be available to mutual customers in the coming months. Terms of the partnership were not disclosed.
