    Case Study: Cape Town Legal Associates

    See how our system delivered a 26% increase in billable hours, 43% reduction in document prep time, and 37% improvement in client satisfaction for a mid-sized Cape Town law firm.

    "Bad Robot's legal practice management system has transformed how we operate. Our attorneys now spend significantly more time on billable client work rather than administration.
