Overview
One Attorney vs. 100-Lawyer Teams
Solo personal injury attorney Leila Kilgore revolutionized her practice using AI technology, enabling her one-person firm to match the research capabilities and drafting speed of massive defense teams, without sacrificing the personalized client service that drives successful outcomes.
The Challenge
The Resource Disparity Problem
Running a solo practice meant confronting overwhelming resource disparities in every case. While opposing counsel deployed teams of associates for research and document production, Leila handled everything alone.
Research Bottlenecks
Defense teams: 2 hours with multiple attorneys. Leila alone: 8+ hours for equivalent work.
Document Production Delays
Big firms: Complex motions produced overnight. Solo practice: Same documents took days to complete.
Impossible Choices
Time on research meant less time for client care and case strategy. Workload threatened both practice sustainability and personal well-being.
"It's just me. I used to practice with my dad… and now he's gone. So it's just me and I have a little small shop, and I really don't want to have some big office with all these people."
