Creating Space for Strategic Legal Work

Opportunity

As the business grew, the legal team faced increasing pressure to review and assess a high volume of low-value contracts—many of which were time-consuming but not business-critical. “Reading through lengthy, repetitive contracts was draining time and resources we simply didn’t have,” Jackson explained. “We needed a smarter, faster way to get things done.”

Inspired by the rise of AI in legal, Millie attended a legaltech event in London—where Pocketlaw was showcased. After testing the platform only a few times, she immediately saw its potential. “The timing was perfect. Pocketlaw came in just as we were actively looking for ways to simplify and speed up our legal workflows.”

Solution

Pocketlaw now plays a central role in the contract review processes at PortmanDentex. “The comparison tool is amazing. I use it to mark up contracts quickly, search for key topics, and get the clarity I need fast,” said Jackson.

Whether it's tackling a last-minute review or juggling multiple priorities, Pocketlaw is her go-to assistant for instant insight. “When I’ve got a lot on my plate and need a quick fix, Pocketlaw delivers results in 60 seconds. It’s become a real lifesaver.”

Impact

Since introducing Pocketlaw, Millie estimates that her contract review work is up to 50% more efficient—freeing up valuable time to focus on more strategic initiatives. “It’s not just about speed, it’s about enabling higher-value work,” she explained. “Pocketlaw helps me move away from the admin-heavy work and lean into the projects that really matter—like shaping legal policy, managing risk, and supporting our business growth.”

While the wider legal team is still early in its adoption journey, Jackson sees clear potential for broader rollout. “I’m a tech enthusiast, so it’s been easy for me to integrate. But the impact is already clear, and I expect Pocketlaw to take on more of our contract review and risk guidance as we scale.”

Key Results

• Up to 50% more efficient in contract review workflows

• Routine reviews completed in under 60 seconds, compared to 20–30 minutes manually

• Significant time savings on low-value, high-volume contracts

• Increased capacity for strategic projects, risk management, and legal policy development

• Faster onboarding of new acquisitions through streamlined contract assessment

Looking Ahead

For a fast-growing company like PortmanDentex, the ability to handle complexity with confidence is vital—and legal can’t afford to be a bottleneck. “Tools like Pocketlaw are helping transform how we work,” Jackson said. “It’s enabling us to be more proactive, more strategic, and more aligned with the pace of the business.”
