The legal industry is wide-ranging. In 2024 there were almost 500,000 law firms in the US alone. [1]
From boutique practices to global firms, lawyers specialize in everything from complex litigation and M&A to immigration, employment, real estate, and beyond. Each practice area, firm size, and client base creates its own expectations, workflows, and day-to-day processes.
That’s why one-size-fits-all tools rarely give modern legal teams what they need.
Workstorm is built differently. Our collaboration and matter management platform is designed specifically for legal teams and adapts to the way you already work. Your unique approach becomes a competitive advantage instead of a workflow challenge.
From matter intake to ongoing collaboration, execution, and reporting, Workstorm brings your work into a single, secure workspace that scales with your team and your caseload.
What types of law firms benefit from Workstorm?
Workstorm works for legal teams that need structure and oversight without sacrificing flexibility.
The platform is used by a wide range of firms and legal departments, from specialized practice groups to large, multi-office organizations. Streams, our matter-based dashboards, give every team a central place to manage work and collaborate with colleagues and clients in real time.
Whether you’re running a boutique litigation practice, a growing transactional group, or an enterprise legal department, Workstorm provides the tools to keep matters moving and teams aligned.
How do matter-based Streams standardize workflows?
Streams serve as living dashboards for each matter, bringing together tasks, conversations, files, and data analytics. With workflow templating, you can turn proven processes into repeatable Streams, standardize how work gets done across teams, and ensure every matter follows a consistent path from intake to resolution.
Each Stream becomes the central hub for that matter, so you always know the status of tasks, next steps, and who’s responsible for what.
Integrated messaging, meetings, and file sharing
Workstorm eliminates the fragmentation of email, chat, and file shares scattered across multiple tools. Legal professionals can message, meet via video group calls, and share documents directly within a matter’s Stream, keeping context and communication in one secure place instead of across off-channel systems.
Advanced document and file management
Agreements, pleadings, evidence, work product, and client communications all stay tied to the correct matter. Workstorm makes it simple to organize, find, and collaborate on documents where the rest of the work is already happening inside the Stream. Quickly connect to iManage, Netdocs, Microsoft, Google, Box, or Drobbox to bring critical files into the workflow.
Task management and time tracking for accountability
Enhanced task controls let you assign work, set priorities, add estimates, and track completion across matters and teams. With integrated time tracking, firms gain reliable, defensible data that support budget tracking, staffing decisions, billing, and client transparency.
Real-time analytics for better oversight
Workstorm’s analytics and reporting give leaders a clear, real-time view into execution across matters. Dashboards surface key indicators such as workload, bottlenecks, and timeline risks so leaders can identify issues early and intervene before budgets or deadlines are at risk.
Secure, compliant collaboration
Workstorm is built for legal security and confidentiality. By centralizing collaboration and matter data in a secure environment, firms reduce the risk of sensitive information being spread across email threads and consumer-grade tools and gain the audit-ready data trails clients and regulators expect.
Modernizing legal work with agentic AI
With integrated agentic AI and human-in-the-loop controls, legal teams can reimagine and modernize workflows while preserving the oversight critical to practice. From templating repeatable processes to accelerating routine tasks, AI works inside the Streams you already use and never as a black box outside your matter records. This means you continue to control how AI is used and at your firm’s policy and compliance pace.
Why Workstorm?
Many tools promise to “streamline legal work” but force teams into rigid workflows or disconnected systems. Some tools are designed for enterprise size firms while other tools focus on firm partners who must do it all. Workstorm was built with a focus on how to improve workflow to scale operations and support growth at law firms of any size.
Workstorm is designed for legal from the ground up:
- Matter-centric: Streams align with how legal teams naturally organize work.
- Configurable: Templating and controls let you reflect your firm’s real processes.
- Collaborative: Messaging, meetings, files, and tasks live together inside each matter.
- Measurable: Analytics and time tracking turn day-to-day work into usable, audit-ready data.
- Secure: Built to support the confidentiality, compliance, and oversight requirements of legal practice.
Workstorm serves as a long-term partner to help you standardize execution, strengthen oversight, and scale operations across all matters.
When your tools work the way your legal teams actually operate, you stop chasing information and start driving outcomes. Workstorm gives you a single, structured foundation to run matters with more precision and deliver strong client service.
