By centralizing case data and using AI to summarize recent activity, Cole estimates that Filevine saves him 3-5 hours per week. That amounts to 152-260 hours each year. This is time previously spent in meetings and administrative catch-up, which is typically unbillable.
“It’s not just meetings,” he adds. “It’s not having to yell out to my assistant or chase answers. It’s hours every week.”
Using Depositions by Filevine, Cole now delivers client summaries days or even weeks faster. Previously, waiting for other companies to deliver synced transcripts and videos could take up to two weeks.
“Now, I can send a report within hours,” he explains. “I even embed video clips directly into the client letter so they can see what I’m describing.”
With CoPilot and custom topics in depositions, Cole can locate testimony instantly, even mid-deposition or in front of a judge.
“I’ve been in depositions where something unexpected came up, and I could search every mention of a key fact on the spot,” he says. “It helps me think on my feet and perform at a higher level.”
Through LOIS, Cole chats directly with his case to instantly retrieve critical insights:
“I ask it the same questions I’d ask an assistant sitting next to me: when was the last client update, what’s coming up next, summarize the last 30 days. It saves me time and gives me confidence.”
The impact goes beyond efficiency. “The thing I fear most is a deadline getting missed,” Cole says. “Filevine gives me peace of mind because I can see everything. I can stay on top of it all.”
