The name
A qila is a fortress. The name sets out four duties we take on in the engagement letter.
Quality means the standard your practice is already held to. Every control is tested and the evidence is written down. Support carries on after go-live. Nothing here is a demo that quietly rots.
Technology belongs where it removes hours from the working week. Your drafting and your review come under one set of controls. Intake and research answer to the same record. Anything that adds risk to a matter stays outside the scope.
Our controls follow the matter file the way an Irish firm does. The practice rules you answer to sit in the engagement from day one. Privilege never leaves the firm.
Every engagement carries an audit trail and a named human checkpoint. You get evidence you can hand to a client or a regulator.
What we handle
Lease review comes back with the break clause and the page number attached. The same review runs across a discovery bundle. Every answer cites the source page. Nothing reaches the file without a citation behind it.
This service in detailEvery enquiry arrives through one controlled front door. The facts and the conflict check land in the same record. The matter reaches the right fee earner with the check already evidenced.
This service in detailThe first version comes from your own precedent library. It already sounds like your firm wrote it. The audit trail behind it shows who changed what.
This service in detailYou put a question to your own files. The answer comes back with the authority attached. No one trawls the shared drive.
This service in detailOur checks run across open files and live deadlines every day. The exception reaches a partner before it becomes a complaint. The reporting pack behind it is the one your insurer asks to see.
This service in detailOne record covering work that currently sits in four places. Your case management and your accounts report into the same oversight. Email sits inside that record too.
This service in detailHow QILA works for your firm
We work across 14 practice areas. A two-partner practice in Galway answers to the same control set as a Dublin firm with forty fee earners. Your caseload sets the brief.
How we work
We sit with your fee earners and map where the hours go and where the firm carries risk. You get the findings in writing whether or not you engage us.
Your obligations set the scope. Data handling and retention go in writing before any work starts. You approve the human checkpoints first.
The work runs with one team over 4 to 6 weeks against your own precedents and your own matter files. You get the controls in writing before anything touches a live matter. Nothing here is a reskinned template.
The testing is independent. Your insurer gets an audit trail it will accept. The wider firm gets training. A support agreement keeps the controls current after go-live.
Data protection
Privilege does not survive careless handling. Every engagement starts at the security review. You get the data handling in writing before you sign anything.
How we handle your dataYour first review call
You leave with a written view of the obligations that new technology would put on your practice. That holds whether or not you hire us. We reply to every enquiry within one working day.
