About Lawyaw

Lawyaw is a web-based documentation automation solution that builds templates from your existing legal documents. Attorneys can upload Microsoft Word documents such as fee agreements, contracts, and discovery requests, and within 24 hours Lawyaw will create legal templates based on those documents.

Who Lawyaw is For

Because Lawyaw works with your existing Word documents, it is likely best-suited to attorneys who have already built out a robust document repository within their firms. It’s more a tool to automate the content you already have than one that can help you build out new content.

Since Lawyaw is entirely web-based, it’s also a good fit for attorneys who would like access to their documents from anywhere.

Additional Details about Lawyaw

California court forms. Lawyaw is tightly integrated with the California state court filing system, giving attorneys access to over 5,000 court forms. Attorneys can fill out all Judicial Council, county, and federal immigration forms with Lawyaw. The company also updates those forms automatically, ensuring access to the most current version.

E-signatures. Lawyaw has a federally-compliant e-signature tool built right in. Since the product is web-based, lawyers simply sign online and then forward them to clients for their e-signature. This eliminates the need for a third-party e-signing tool such as HelloSign.

Clio integration. For Clio users, Lawyaw will add new client information to Lawyaw by pulling it from Clio. Attorneys can also track Lawyaw drafting time within Clio.
