Spending at large firms can often get out of hand, but after the 2009 financial crisis consumers began to expect a new kind of efficiency and accountability, with fixed budgets and predictive results. That’s why Catherine Krow created Digitory Legal. Digitory is a cloud-based legal budgeting and resource management product that helps in-house departments find counsel, stay within budget, and generally control legal spending. The software can project what various tasks should cost and why. Having worked as a partner at Orrick and as an associate at Simpson Thacher and other national law firms, Catherine has a very practical understanding of legal cost management, fee structures, and the role of AI in legal technology. At a time where corporate legal departments are trying more than ever to budget for legal matters, Digitory may be their cost-control tool of choice.
