Stay ahead of every claim, charge, and policy change in labor and employment law
CoCounsel Legal handles the fact-intensive, multistate, and drafting-heavy work of employment and labor law practice so you can focus on strategy and client counsel
Employment and labor law never slows down and your clients count on you to keep up
Scattered human resources (HR) records and missing timelines steal hours you can't spare
Sifting through emails, chat logs, human resources information system (HRIS) exports, and performance reviews to surface comparators, pretext evidence, or retaliation patterns is time-consuming, but critical to outcomes.
Extract key facts and identify critical dates to build a defensible timeline in minutes, not days — 85% of CoCounsel Legal users report finding more information faster*.
*Time-savings data from Thomson Reuters customer surveys and U.S. usage data, 2024
You need a repeatable compliance process, not a research project
State and local differences in wage-and-hour rules, non-competes, pay transparency, and leave laws make it difficult to stay current and provide clear, business-ready guidance for multistate compliance.
Get plain-language answers with visual charts across jurisdictions with Practical Law’s State Q&A tool, while CoCounsel Legal’s clause library maps preferred language to the right states.
Tight drafting deadlines leave little time for strategic work
Employment lawyers often start from scratch on position statements, demand letters, complaints, separation agreements, and policy updates that they must tailor to specific facts and jurisdictions.
More than double your speed on document review and drafting — CoCounsel Legal generates investigation summaries in minutes instead of hours — so you can focus on higher-value work.*
