Scope, methods and delivery

The problem we address

Legal research in 2026 is expensive and time-consuming. Associates spend billable hours on Westlaw and LexisNexis researching case law, while consumer complaint patterns, regulatory enforcement trends and industry sentiment shifts, possible early signs of the next wave of litigation, sit in public data that takes time to monitor. Business development relies on relationships, not data.

Our approach

We produce regulatory intelligence, litigation trend analysis, and consumer complaint pattern reports that complement your legal research. Our reports surface emerging enforcement priorities, rising complaint volumes, compliance gaps, and competitive positioning intelligence, giving your practice both stronger client advisory and better business development intelligence. All under your firm's brand.

Why law firms need a research stack that handles both research and AI risk

Legal research platforms support case law, statutory research and citation checking. We add separately scoped, evidence-linked research and review at the firm-management level, including:

Regulatory enforcement trends across the verticals your firm practices in
Plaintiff-firm activity patterns suggesting where mass-tort waves are forming
Competitor-firm hiring signals revealing practice-group expansion
AI-drafted brief review — checking the factual claims, statistics and non-case sources beyond the citations themselves; Damien Charlotin's AI Hallucination Cases database documents judicial decisions addressing hallucinated material

What we deliver for legal practices

Engagements deliver three product types branded for your firm:

Regulatory enforcement intelligence — FTC, SEC, FINRA, and state attorney general activity in your firm's practice verticals, plus circuit-split and Supreme Court watch for issues in your practice group
Competitive intelligence on rival firms — practice-group hiring signals from H-1B applications, lateral partner moves, federal contract awards (a useful proxy for some practice areas), and publicly-available revenue indicators
Verification-as-a-service — the highest-leverage offering for law firms in 2026. Every AI-drafted brief, motion, or research memo passes through an independent fact-check layer that verifies citations, statistics, and named-party references against primary sources before filing

Courts have addressed hallucinated material in legal submissions, including fabricated case citations. Independent source checks help your firm catch those errors before filing.

Where this fits

This works for mid-sized firms (50-500 attorneys) needing research and competitive intelligence beyond practice-group capacity, AmLaw 200 firms with dedicated knowledge management functions looking to extend AI-verification coverage, and litigation boutiques where AI-drafted document risk is concentrated.

It doesn't fit solo and 2-5-attorney practices where engagement volume doesn't justify the research-tier investment.

Questions from legal practices

How does this complement Westlaw and LexisNexis?

Legal research platforms cover case law, statutes and regulation, and many send alerts when those change. We focus on signals outside the law itself that can point to future legal activity: consumer complaint patterns, enforcement trends, and industry sentiment, delivered as finished research.

Can this help with client retention?

Yes. Proactive regulatory monitoring and industry intelligence briefings keep you relevant to clients between active matters. When you alert a client to a regulatory risk before they're aware of it, you demonstrate value that strengthens the relationship.

Do you cover specific regulatory agencies?

We track enforcement actions and priorities across SEC, FTC, CFPB, FDA, EPA, OSHA, DOJ, and state-level regulators. You can focus monitoring on the specific agencies and jurisdictions relevant to your practice areas.

Is this useful for litigation support?

It does. Consumer complaint data, company reputation analysis, and industry sentiment patterns provide valuable context for litigation, whether you're building a case, evaluating settlement positions, or preparing for trial. We provide the data; you provide the legal analysis.

Can you support litigation research?

We provide intelligence research, not legal advice. We produce competitive intelligence, market research, and due diligence that supports legal work: industry analysis for antitrust cases, consumer sentiment for class action assessment, competitive dynamics for M&A review, and regulatory landscape analysis. Attorneys use our research alongside their legal analysis.

What regulatory data do you track?

FTC enforcement actions, CFPB consumer complaints, state attorney general actions, OSHA violations, FDA enforcement, EPA compliance data, and SEC enforcement proceedings. We also track proposed regulations and industry discussion about compliance concerns before they become enforcement actions. Alerts available through our continuous monitoring service.
