Smarter Drafting in Word: A Practical Case Study: How Legal Teams Use LawVu and ClauseBase to Streamline Review and Negotiation
Event Description
In-house legal teams often struggle to access and apply the wealth of knowledge their organizations have built over the years. Fallback clauses, risk positions, and policy considerations are often buried in repositories, making them difficult to surface in day-to-day drafting. Even with a legal workspace, deploying this knowledge seamlessly into Word can be a challenge—slowing down contract review and increasing the risk of inconsistencies.
Join us on Monday, September 22 at 12:00 PM ET for an exclusive case study on how legal teams can bridge this gap. Senne Mennes (COO, ClauseBase), Patrick Kelley (Director of Channel Partnerships, LawVu), and Ali Meredith (Director of Product Partnerships, LawVu) will demonstrate best practices for leveraging a legal workspace and Word add-in to streamline drafting, accelerate review, and improve contract consistency. You’ll see firsthand how LawVu’s AI-powered workspace integrates with ClauseBase’s drafting toolbox to put precedents, clauses, and playbooks directly at your fingertips in Word.
Key takeaways include:
- How to fetch executed contracts from LawVu directly into Word
- Techniques for hunting clauses and documents in LawVu without leaving Word
- Comparing agreements in Word with documents stored in LawVu, identifying conflicts, and generating summary tables
- Reviewing and redlining contracts against a custom playbook built from your organization’s standards
- Proofreading and finalizing contracts efficiently before execution
Who Should Attend:
This session is designed for in-house counsel seeking practical strategies to draft and review contracts more efficiently. It will be especially valuable for legal leaders looking to integrate technology into everyday workflows, improve consistency in negotiations, and reduce time spent on repetitive drafting tasks.
