Epiq and DeepJudge Partner To Scale AI Across Law Firm Institutional Knowledge

Empowering Law Firms To Turn Prior Work Product and Data Into a Competitive Advantage

NEW YORK AND ZURICH, April 21, 2026 - Epiq Advisory for Law Firms, a leading global team of legal technology and knowledge experts, and DeepJudge, an enterprise search and AI platform for legal professionals, today announced a partnership that enables law firms to gain a competitive advantage and achieve superior client service through firm-wide AI adoption that leverages trusted institutional knowledge.

As law firms expand the use of AI in practice, the challenge now is how to apply it consistently at enterprise scale using their own trusted knowledge. At the same time, the quality, governance, and accessibility of that knowledge are decidedly shaping competitive differentiation among firms.

The partnership equips firms to operationalize permission-aware agentic AI workflows grounded in their institutional knowledge. It allows firms to surface relevant insights across matters in real time, support drafting, and build on precedent-driven work, resulting in more informed legal advice. Through the combined intent-based search and AI workflows that DeepJudge offers and the strategic planning, knowledge management, and technical expertise of Epiq, firms can now harness documents, information, and metadata across all their systems to turn prior work product into a strategic advantage and measurable business impact.

"The depth of collective intelligence that law firms possess is extraordinary - and a unique asset that's built over decades," said Paulina Grnarova, CEO and Co-Founder of DeepJudge. "DeepJudge helps firms put the full breadth of that knowledge to work through AI grounded in their own prior work and institutional context. Our partnership with Epiq strengthens firms' ability to incorporate DeepJudge into a holistic AI strategy and translate that foundation into firm-wide adoption, measurable business value, and competitive advantage."

"Law firms have made real progress experimenting with AI. The next challenge is turning that momentum into measurable business impact," said Jim Tuvell, Managing Director of Epiq Advisory for Law Firms. "DeepJudge enterprise search and AI workflows enable firms to find and use their institutional knowledge in governed, permission-aware ways. We help our clients be successful by working together to identify valuable use cases, build scalable AI workflows, and establish governance and adoption programs required to deliver value at a firmwide scale."

This partnership provides structured AI implementation and governed adoption of workflows that establish AI as operational infrastructure. Together, Epiq and DeepJudge enable law firms to deliver stronger client outcomes and achieve enterprise-wide alignment.
