National law firm Husch Blackwell is pleased to announce it has been recognized as the Most Innovative Legal Operations Team of the Year at the KC Legal Leaders Awards, presented by Missouri Lawyer Media.
The firm is recognized for its culture of innovation and its ongoing efforts to pioneer and automate to streamline the delivery of client services. The firm’s impact is illustrated by a recent high-stakes litigation matter in which 400 voicemails were admitted as evidence just 48 hours before oral arguments. Working with the trial team, the firm’s data science team deployed artificial intelligence tools to transcribe and summarize the voicemails, completing the task in under a day.
Husch Blackwell’s Legal Operations team is well-versed in software platforms and prioritizes exploring new technology opportunities. The group is often the first to adopt new programs and technology platforms, collaborating with clients to optimize technology use for their needs. In addition to the Legal Operations team, Husch Blackwell also has Data Science and Robotics Process Automation teams, which provide data insights, process improvements, and leverage machine learning, keeping the firm at the forefront of data and AI technology.
The KC Legal Leaders Awards recognize innovative firms in the Kansas City area that are developing precedent-setting, game-changing practices and initiatives. The complete list of honorees is available here.
