The Challenge

Lightera’s legal team faced contract reviews that took two to three hours per document, slowing turnaround and limiting capacity for higher-value work. As part of a broader digital transformation, the company needed to modernize contract management while strengthening governance, keeping contracts accurate and audit-ready, and building trust in AI among lawyers.

The Solution

Lightera adopted UiPath agentic automation and UiPath IXP to automate complex contract and compliance processes. Agents built with Agent Builder in UiPath Studio analyze clauses, validate legal compliance, and flag risks with confidence scores; flagged sections are routed to the legal team’s Benner Juridico system for lawyer review and final decisions. Early stakeholder engagement, use-case demonstrations, and clear communication helped overcome initial legal-team hesitation and drive adoption.

Results

First-pass contract legal reviews that once took two to three hours now take one to two minutes, with a reported 98%+ improvement in first-pass review time. The first agentic workflow was built in two days. Automation highlights risk touchpoints for lawyers, reduces risk exposure, enables faster legal responses, and embeds compliance into the workflow while freeing attorneys for higher-value decision making.

Key Takeaways

    • Pair agentic contract analysis with human-in-the-loop routing so lawyers retain final judgment on flagged risks
    • Early stakeholder demos and clear communication can overcome legal-team hesitation toward AI
    • Agentic workflows can deliver measurable review-time gains quickly when integrated into existing legal systems
