PALO ALTO, Calif., Aug. 13, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati commits to being the first Am Law 100 firm to fully automate the signing and closing process for an entire practice area. After a rigorous testing and selection process, the firm selected Doxly, the end-to-end transaction management platform, to automate signings and closings for WSGR's emerging companies practice.

Doxly enables deal teams to templatize entire transactions and the simple creation of closing books. It also automates the signature process and streamlines closing checklist review. It is an example of an increasing trend towards process digitization and automation of repetitive, low-value tasks in the legal field, which allows attorneys to focus their time where their expertise matters most, while simultaneously delivering increased value to their clients. Doxly can save up to 50-75% of an attorney's time over traditional methods according to Doxly's recent analysis.

"We aim to bring the best legal technology solutions to our clients through a disciplined and data-driven process of testing, iterating, and co-evolving our legal services along-side the introduction of these technologies," said David Wang, corporate strategic innovation counsel of WSGR. "In this framework, Doxly has demonstrated an ability to help our attorneys and paralegals increase the efficiency and precision of the signing and closing process, while concurrently increasing transparency and collaboration, which is why we are now moving beyond the pilot stage and bringing these proven benefits to our clients practice-wide."

"This first-in-industry practice-wide deployment at WSGR is an incredibly significant development for Doxly and we are so excited they have chosen Doxly's transaction management software based on the unique functionality, intuitive design, and value it has provided their deal teams," said Haley Altman, CEO of Doxly. "WSGR has always focused on providing legal services to technology companies that make our jobs easier and our lives better, and we look forward to providing the same level of innovation for WSGR and the clients they serve."
