Happy (very belated) New Year, friends!
So December didn't go as planned.
Family issues derailed everything and took weeks to sort out.
But here's what happens when a lawyer who teaches AI gets forced to slow down:
I finally had time to focus on building the solution I've been talking about for months."
You know that gap between "AI can save you time" and "actually saving time with AI"?
The one that requires watching hours of tutorials, reading documentation, and still feeling like you're doing it wrong?
I know how frustrating that gap is for non-techies in the legal profession. So I closed it.
Introducing CadenceLex: the platform built around a very simple premise: use AI to get to a first draft quickly and then customize as needed.
I've recorded a demo to show you exactly what I mean.
Watch me take rough notes from a client call about a breach of fiduciary duty case and turn them into a complete Statement of Claim first draft—in under 5 minutes.
No prompt engineering. No template hunting. Just results.
That same task traditionally takes at least 30 minutes. And that's if you're experienced and have your templates dialed in.
This isn't about speed for speed's sake.
It's about reclaiming 25 minutes per pleading.
About leaving the office in time for dinner.
About having the energy to actually enjoy your weekend instead of thinking about the drafting you still need to finish.
CadenceLex works because it's built on my real practice experience.
- Every feature exists because I know it's needed.
- Every workflow is designed because I tested it in my own practice.
- The interface is simple because I'm not a developer trying to impress other developers; I'm trying to help lawyers get results without becoming prompt engineers and while meeting their professional obligations.
Here's where you come in:
We're targeting a Q2 2026 launch, but we need beta testers now - lawyers who'll help us squash bugs and shape the platform before it goes live.
Beta testers won't just get early access: you'll help shape what CadenceLex becomes.
Your feedback will directly influence which features we prioritize and how the workflows evolve
If you're interested in early access, join the waitlist. We'll be inviting testers directly from the waitlist.
Three things you can do right now:
1. Watch the demo (it's 5 minutes—I promise it's worth it)
2. Sign up for early access at cadencelex.com
3. Reply with questions - I'm personally responding to every email
This platform exists because I needed it.
If you've felt the same frustration I have, it might be exactly what you need too.
Thanks for sticking with me through the quiet month. I'm excited to show you what came out of it.
