Wiersholm is implementing Kira as part of its ongoing commitment to innovation and transformation of their legal service delivery model. The new technology will also create more efficiency in their matter handling so lawyers can focus on the most complex aspects of every matter. Kira Systems' award-winning software uses machine learning technology to uncover information in contracts, even when the wording varies from document to document.
