Six fair questions about an AI in your firm.
The questions a supervising solicitor should ask of any AI, answered for Fiona.
-
What is Fiona?
An AI assistant for small law firms.
Fiona keeps track of every matter and does the routine work: call notes, documents, drafting and follow-ups.
-
How does she know what's missing?
From the rules behind the work, each tied to the paragraph it comes from, so every flag shows its reason. She starts with one practice area and adds others, one at a time.
-
Who decides?
You do.
Nothing Fiona prepares is sent, filed or actioned outside her own workspace unless the lawyer has approved it.
-
What happens to our data, and to her memory?
Your firm's data is held in the UK, stays with your firm in a private deployment of its own, and is never used to train an AI model.
Fiona's memory of your matters is your firm's alone. Your firm can withdraw it, and it does not follow a lawyer to their next job.
Over time, Fiona builds your firm's working memory, which your firm owns.
-
What doesn't she do?
Fiona does not give legal advice; the lawyer stays responsible for the work.
She doesn't replace your judgement. She shows what is missing and why; you decide what happens next.
-
What does it cost?
Small firms pay one monthly fee. Larger firms also pay once to have Fiona set up around how they work. You see every figure before you agree.
