Built With Lawyers, For Lawyers

Dictionairee Entry

Literal Meaning

A claim that practicing lawyers were involved in the design of a legal software product and are its intended users.

Buzzword Usage

Repeated in every pitch in the category, by every vendor in the category, which makes it useless as a way of choosing between any two of them.

Why It’s Fluff

  • Universal Claim, Zero Signal: When every competitor says the same sentence, the sentence cannot distinguish any of them.
  • Involvement Unquantified: Two advisers on a call and twelve attorneys on staff are described in identical words.
  • House-Cleaning Reality Check: Like every restaurant on the street advertising that the food is made by chefs.

Reality Check

Love Island (Season 4): Georgia Steel insists she is loyal in nearly every conversation, and the repetition steadily replaces anything that would have demonstrated it.

β€œBuilt with lawyers, for lawyers, reflecting how legal work is really done.”
