AI and Practice Innovation

At Honigman, we pride ourselves on keeping clients at the forefront of our legal service delivery. We embrace change and strive to think outside the box, always searching for the best solution, rather than relying on tradition or precedent. Every matter is an opportunity to innovate and maximize value.

With clients in mind, Honigman has created a team of industry-leading professionals dedicated to exploring innovative technology including artificial intelligence, applying proven legal project management methodologies, tailoring creative pricing structures and alternative fee arrangements, and optimizing matter team staffing.

We collaborate closely with clients to understand their objectives and deliver successful outcomes while maximizing efficiency. The Practice Innovation team delivers bespoke legal solutions while maintaining the highest standards of client service.

Artificial Intelligence + Innovative Legal Technology

Our Practice Innovation team consistently invests in innovative legal technology tools designed to enhance all aspects of client service delivery. From advanced knowledge management systems to sophisticated artificial intelligence tools, these solutions are thoughtfully designed to boost productivity and streamline workflows.

However, we know that artificial intelligence is not a substitute for legal judgment. We utilize artificial intelligence as a strategic resource that enables attorneys to deliver sharper insights, faster results, and greater value. Honigman’s dedicated AI On Demand team is a cross-functional group designed to support the integration of artificial intelligence in client service delivery, ensuring enhanced efficiency without compromising professional or ethical standards. Our approach to AI includes not only utilizing the most cutting edge AI products on the market, but constantly evolving to create custom AI solutions tailored toward our clients’ needs. 

Our team leverages AI to support a wide range of legal needs, including:

• Contract analysis and clause comparison
• Due diligence and document review
• Drafting assistance and summarization
• Litigation risk identification
• Legal research acceleration
• Patent prosecution and office action responses
• Deposition summarization
• Deal analytics and compliance support

Right-Sourced Staffing

Matter staffing is not a one-size-fits-all solution. At Honigman, we combine traditional partner-track staffing models with alternative approaches that maximize the strengths of every resource through optimized allocation.

• The Legal Project Management team supports clients throughout the entire lifecycle of a matter: defining scope, developing estimates, creating staffing and matter plans, and monitoring matter performance.

• The Research and Intelligence team serves as the central resource for legal information, providing targeted insights, current awareness of key developments, and competitive intelligence.

• The Professional Attorney Department consists of an in-house team of career staff attorney roles and our industry-leading due diligence center, Honigman Review Solutions, delivering high-quality legal services across routine and specialized matters.

Matter Management

Guided by client input, our Legal Project Managers work collaboratively with Honigman attorneys to deliver client-centered service with a sense of security and confidence. With a Legal Project Manager, clients can expect standardized knowledge management processes and automated reporting for up-to-the-minute visibility on key metrics.

Tailored Pricing

Drawing on extensive experience with industry best practices, the Honigman Client Value Team works collaboratively with our clients to craft pricing solutions that best align with the requirements of specific matters. We offer alternative fee and value-based billing arrangements backed by lifecycle fee reporting to ensure transparency and predictability for clients.

Legal Operations Consulting

Our Legal Operations Consulting team partners with clients to improve how their legal departments operate and align with broader business goals. We help streamline workflows, support strategic planning, and guide AI and technology adoption.
From navigating the legal tech landscape to connecting clients with trusted consultants and enhancing competitive intelligence capabilities, we deliver practical, tailored strategies that drive efficiency and impact. At every stage, we bring clarity, innovation, and practical insight to help clients work smarter.
