From Scratch
Your Team Keeps Redoing Work Someone Already Did
A junior associate spends four hours going through a deposition. They find three key admissions. They save notes in a Word doc nobody opens. Two weeks later a paralegal reviews the same deposition from scratch. That is not a communication problem. It is a structure problem. There is nowhere for findings to live that the whole team can see and build on.
What Gets Lost When Work Lives in Inboxes
Email threads and folders aren't a reliable system. Findings are easily lost under pressure.
Research gets redone because nobody knew it existed.
A new team member joins mid-matter and has to rebuild context from file names and email chains.
A partner asks what the team has found and gets five different answers from five different people.
Key findings from document review never make it into case strategy.
Of Working Week
Time professionals spend just searching for information that already exists somewhere in the firm.
Lost Capacity
Lost billable capacity every year for a ten-lawyer team billing at USD 300 per hour due to siloed work.
Every Finding Needs to Be Visible to Your Whole Team
When one person finds something, everyone should know. When the AI answers a question, the whole team should be able to see it. When a paralegal builds a deposition summary, it should live where the partner can access it in thirty seconds. That is what Grella does.
How Grella Keeps Your Whole Team on the Same Page
Stop searching through six different places. Everything your team uncovers lives right where you need it.
One shared matter
Create a project for your case. Invite your team. Every document, every AI conversation, and every saved finding lives in that one place. Nothing gets lost in a personal inbox.
Everyone sees what the AI found
When an associate asks Grella a question, the answer is visible to the whole team. When a paralegal uploads a new deposition and asks for a summary, the partner can see it without being briefed separately.
Saved findings your whole team can use
Turn any finding into a persistent Artifact. A deposition summary. A timeline. A key facts list. A contradiction list. These live in the project and update as new documents come in. Any team member can open them.
New team members get up to speed fast
A junior joining mid-matter does not start from scratch. They open the project and see every document, every question the team has asked, and every finding already made. The matter has memory.
Built around how firms actually work
Grella has role-based access that mirrors your firm structure. Partners see everything. Associates work on their assigned matters. Paralegals support. External counsel gets read-only access.
The Work One Person Does Makes the Whole Team Smarter
Other tools store your documents. Grella stores what your team learned from those documents.
iManage and NetDocuments give you a place to save files. Grella gives you a place to save the reasoning, the findings, and the questions your team built on top of those files. Those findings are visible, searchable, and useful to every person on the matter.
