Practice coverage
8 workflows

Mike AI
Legal operations suite
Full-service legal work, organised around what has to move next.
A full-service UK legal operations suite covering matter progress, evidence, source references, reviewer decisions, output locks, firm-owned storage setup and active-user economics.
Move the matter. Show the evidence. Protect the firm.
Operating pressure
Coverage by practice area
Residential conveyancing operations
Commercial property and lease triage
Private client and executry control
Debt recovery and commercial disputes
Family law disclosure and order readiness
Corporate and SME diligence
Pressure combines reviewer gates and export locks, so managers see where the firm needs action instead of another static report.
Ready workflows
4/8
Ready means the route has a controlled workflow model, sources, actions, reviewer gates and export products represented.
Source references
15/32 mapped
Each workflow assumes firm-owned SharePoint or OneDrive references rather than Mike AI storing document bodies.
Controls
44 gates / 30 locks
Every practice-area lane has reviewer controls and locked outputs before external release.
Practice coverage
Enough breadth for a serious regional firm.
The aim is not to expose complexity. Each practice lane answers four daily questions: what is stuck, who owns it, what evidence proves it, and whether the output can safely leave the firm.
Residential conveyancing operations
ReadyResidential conveyancing
Move completion work by making missing evidence, source-of-funds risk, lender conditions, title issues and export state visible every morning.

Firm-owned storage path
Business profile
ReadyOwner: Admin
Firm details, work areas, role model and active-user package are captured before workspace activation.
Firm-owned storage setup
Storage setupOwner: IT admin
SharePoint or OneDrive selected folders are the preferred source boundary; live tenant consent remains an admin-controlled action.
Source reference import
ReadyOwner: Matter team
Manual source references can be mapped by folder path, status, version and linked blocker without storing raw document bodies.
Private-source AI run
Storage setupOwner: Admin and reviewer
Firm-specific answers require storage readback, model policy, audit trail, citations and reviewer release evidence.
DMS connectors
PlannedOwner: Product and buyer IT
iManage and NetDocuments remain connector architecture until buyer-approved credentials and revocation evidence exist.
Adoption sequence
A firm can start broad, then prove value lane by lane.
The suite is designed so IT can control the data boundary and teams can still begin with operational source references, actions, review decisions and output history.
01
Set up company and active-seat package
Admin confirms business profile, package, roles, policies and initial practice areas.
02
Map firm-owned source folders
Matter teams reference SharePoint or OneDrive paths and status without uploading client documents into Mike AI by default.
03
Move matters through actions
Evidence requests, chases, assignments, blocker clearance, review decisions and output versions survive refresh through server-backed records.
04
Prove value and broaden workflows
Operations lead reviews ageing, export locks, reviewer load, saved-time value and which practice areas should be activated next.
Buyer questions
Commercially clear, operationally grounded.
Controlled public sample suite for a regional law-firm workspace. No real law-firm approval, endorsement, evaluation or private client data processing is implied.
Does this replace a legal research database?
No. The product is positioned as legal operations and matter execution. Research-content parity remains a blocked claim unless a content partnership or integration is added.
Can a firm use it without sending client documents into Mike AI storage?
Yes. The preferred route is firm-owned SharePoint or OneDrive selected folders, with Mike AI storing source references, workflow state, review decisions, output versions and audit events.
Where is Mike AI strongest today?
Recurring operational workflows: evidence chasing, reviewer gates, export locks, matter readiness, output packs, role queues and concurrent-user commercial packaging.
What still needs proof before stronger competitor claims?
Live Microsoft selected-folder readback, private-source AI over firm files, native Word/Outlook add-ins, DMS connectors and independent assurance certifications.
