The Smarter Way to Simplify Legal Work
We combine expert legal advice with modern market-leading technology and ongoing support to help legal teams work faster, reduce risk, and achieve more, using the tools they already trust, and the automation and AI features they’re ready for.
Our Difference
Legal Thinking. Technological Execution. Real Results.
At LawHawk, we believe legal transformation isn’t about the newest tools, it’s about smarter design and execution. We bring solutions that simplify complex processes, reduce risk, and unlock value.
What sets us apart is our ability to understand the legal context behind every workflow, and to translate that into user-friendly systems that fit your existing environment. Because we already understand the complexities of legal documents and processes, you won’t need to explain the details to us. You can focus on the problem and the outcomes you want, and we can take care of the rest.
With proven automation, Microsoft 365 expertise, and the ability to integrate AI solutions when you’re ready, we help legal teams deliver faster, more consistently, and with greater confidence.
How We Work?
From first conversation to fully delivered — and supported long after.
We make modernisation easy. Our process is structured, transparent, and tailored to your team - whether you're automating a single task or rethinking end-to-end delivery.
01. Understand your goals
We begin by listening. Whether you're looking to scale legal delivery, reduce risk, or modernise workflows, we start by understanding your current environment, your pain points, and how you'll measure success. Because we're lawyers too, you won't need to explain the legal detail - you can focus on the outcomes you want.
02. Identify viable options for improvement
We work out where automation, smarter workflows, or better documents will deliver the most value - including where AI can safely accelerate results. Then we present achievable, clearly scoped options that fit your situation and your budget. The focus here is on what's possible and what will actually work, so you can choose the option that's right for you.
03. Agree changes, responsibilities and costs
Once you've chosen your preferred option, we confirm the deliverables, responsibilities, outcomes and price - all upfront. You'll know exactly what's involved and what you'll get before we begin, at a fixed price you've agreed (see The LawHawk Value Model below).
04. Deliver for testing
Most solutions are configured and delivered within weeks. You'll test in your own environment with support from our team, and we'll refine as you go. Many clients go live sooner than they expected, because the solution works so much better than the process it replaces.
05. Feedback & improvement
We make adjustments to optimise performance and usability - streamlining a clause, making a question clearer for users, or automating an extra approval step. Your input shapes the final product. We don't believe in arbitrary acceptance criteria or deadlines.
06. Ongoing support
Legal work evolves, and so do our solutions. We provide ongoing support and optimisation - updating templates, adding AI features, integrating new tools, and responding to regulatory change as needed. As a LawHawk client you can reach us any time you have a question, and we'll call you when we have ideas.
Pricing - the LawHawk Value Model
Priced on value, not the clock - and agreed before we start.
Pre-Built Solutions
We offer a number of pre-built solutions which our customers can pay to use rather than build. With no minimum volume or term requirements, you can pay only for what you use with agreed up-front pricing that you can see here.
Advice and other professional services
Most professional services firms bill by the clock, in six-minute units. It's a model built on uncertainty: you don't know what the work will cost until it's already done, and unwelcome surprises are common. We think that's the wrong way round.
At the agreement stage of the process above, we give you a fixed, guaranteed price with a choice of clearly scoped options. You choose the outcome you want and know exactly what it costs before any work begins. Our services cost what they're worth to you - not how long they take us.
Where it makes sense, we also structure charges to line up with how you receive value, so the investment works with your cashflow rather than against it.
What this means for you
-
Price certainty - a fixed, guaranteed price, agreed upfront. No hourly billing, no surprises.
-
Value, not hours - you pay for outcomes and the value they create, not time on a timesheet.
-
Easier budgeting and cashflow -predictable pricing you can plan around, with charges timed to suit you.
-
Full transparency - a clear view of the work involved and exactly what each option costs.
This is our commitment to you. If you'd like to talk through how the Value Model would apply to your work, let's talk.
"We've got a system that makes the workflow of a business broker easier and more efficient. That means more time talking to buyers and sellers, and less time chasing paper."
"...the nature of the whole process has significantly improved. Business owners can put all the required information into one platform, and their accountants can add information as well, which eliminates double-handling. It's a huge time saver."
"LawHawk has been very responsive and great to work with, helping turn my big ideas into reality."
"LawHawk facilitated the whole process... They make sure the transition and whole system is set up really well"
"It was important to us to have a local provider as part of the solution - first, to ensure we had a high level of responsiveness and secondly, to support local business"
"For me, it's brilliant. I can just sit there watching requests come through. I can see them coming in. I can see them getting signed. I can see them going into SharePoint, all signed, all data tagged."
"I think the benefit of working with LawHawk is that they help you focus your mind on what it is that you're trying to do. If you try and go for the most complex automation at the beginning, you'll probably just get nowhere... LawHawk has been critical for us in that regard."
"I'm now meeting deadlines for filing, and have significantly improved the accuracy of my legal documentation... The processes are more efficient, which means I've achieved a major goal - that of time savings"
"Automation means I know things are actually under control. The system is reliable, it's working, it removes that margin of error - that gives me business confidence and peace of mind."
"People at Foodies who have used our automated contracts love that we have embraced legal innovation, with many really enjoying the process. It's not just the legal team who have been impressed by it and how easy it is to use. It is starting to represent significant time savings for other departments as well as ours."
"With greater accuracy from the automation, and the related review and approval processes, there's less chance a contract template can be completed incorrectly, which reduces the legal and project risk."
"Their ability to look at our problem, and help us identify our requirements, has been amazing. They're lawyers as well as software developers and they've got to know us."
"LawHawk's document automation system means that there's not just a huge increase in productivity gain, but there's no compromise on quality."
"The time savings Kāinga Ora are seeing from the automation project are huge. Where we produce contracts using the automation we average a 75% reduction in the time taken relative to the time had we not used automation."
"We had to consider user experience - which comes at a cost - because traditionally users don't like change. So the more we could align an upgraded product to user needs, the better off we would be."
"LawHawk and ProLegalTech were instrumental in helping us come up with a solution when it became clear that the professional services fees others charged would be commercially impractical for a New Zealand law firm."
"We've had tremendous uptake... We are already investigating how we can automate more workflows to further support our clients and staff."
"The solutions LawHawk has delivered for us have transformed the way we do business and have driven value right throughout our organisation"
"LawHawk are, in my opinion, hands down the best service provider we use. We'll definitely be working with them in the future."
"We've always had to find ways of working smarter. We needed to find ways to automate processes that were repeatable and were taking up time, so that we could free up capacity for high value tasks."
"Initial delivery was very quick - only 3 weeks after we signed the contract, and the general functionality all worked straight away."
"It's an absolute success story. Our subcontractors are now signing agreements instantly off their mobile phones as they leave the pre-let meetings."
"Just do it. It saves so much time. It's not just a benefit from a financial point of view, but culturally for your staff too - which is priceless."
"Using the online contract template has allowed us to gain efficiencies and cost savings in terms of staff time. What previously took hours now takes minutes."
"[LawHawk] are also proactive. When they're presented with an idea or a pain point, they're able to provide a practical solution using language that is easily understandable by people who may not be so good with technology"
"[LawHawk] have been quite instrumental in creating a legal operations network and introducing people together and allowing various clients to speak to each other."
