In his presentation, Hugo highlighted a striking contrast: while law firms deploy sophisticated technology for legal work itself—e-discovery, document automation, AI-powered research—their internal operations often rely on 20-year-old solutions—email chains and spreadsheets that create an "impossible puzzle" when staffing matters.
The Problem Wemble Solves
Hugo outlined three critical impacts of inefficient work allocation:
- Hours wasted finding the right person instead of billing time
- Burnout risk from over-allocation (costing upwards of $500K per associate)
- Clients waiting longer while firms struggle to staff matters—no longer competitive when AI platforms deliver answers in minutes
Our Approach
Wemble's solution is deliberately simple: associates get a one-click way to indicate availability and preferences, integrated directly into Teams and Outlook. Partners and resource managers can then instantly see who's available and qualified, delegating work with confidence.
"We've built Wemble with a laser focus on adoption," Hugo explained, noting that 100% of pilots have resulted in firm-wide rollouts, with 120 practice groups now using Wemble daily.
Summit Response
The presentation resonated with the TLTF audience, sparking conversations with several firms interested in modernizing their work allocation processes. As we plan our next phase of growth, we're grateful for the connections and insights gained at this premier legal tech gathering.
