Case studies

Forms are often overlooked when law firms review their CMS, DMS, even PMS and wider LegalTech estate. Rothera Bray treated FormEvo as part of that connected ecosystem; creating a practical, lower-risk starting point for wider transformation. 

Rothera Bray LLP is a multi-office East Midlands law firm with offices across Nottingham, Leicester and Derby. The firm provides a broad range of specialist legal services to both individuals and businesses across the region.

Following a period of growth and merger activity, Rothera Bray began an ambitious digital transformation project designed to support a more connected way of working across the business.

The Challenges

To minimise disruption and realise the benefits of the new legal technology ecosystem sooner, the implementation timeline was accelerated from nine months to six.

That created several operational and cultural challenges:

  • Multiple offices and teams needed to align around new processes and systems
  • Introducing a new CMS required significant change management.
  • Long-established ways of working created some resistance to change.
  • Integration across multiple platforms added technical complexity.
  • Training and adoption needed to happen quickly without disrupting client service.

The Solution

Working alongside Verlata Consulting, Rothera Bray implemented a connected legal technology ecosystem designed to create a single reliable way of working across the business.

NetDocuments acts as the firm’s central document repository, Actionstep manages workflows, matters and case data, while FormEvo plays a key role in streamlining legal forms processes, reducing repetitive data entry and creating greater consistency across teams and offices.

To support adoption, Rothera Bray also introduced an IT Training Manager to help teams transition effectively and maximise value from the new systems.

easy to use, and the admin time saved with fee earners has had a massive impact on the amount of fees they can produce.

Benefits and Results

Consistency across offices

Structured data capture and auto-population help teams work consistently across every location.

Reduced errors

Standardised processes and intelligent form logic minimise duplication and manual inconsistencies.

Improved efficiency

Fee earners spend less time re-entering information and more time focused on clients.

Connected processes

Forms, matter data, documents and workflows now operate as part of a more joined-up technology environment.

Improved collaboration

Shared systems and processes make it easier for teams across different offices to work together.

Scalable infrastructure

The new cloud-based ecosystem can support continued growth and technology development.

Delivered in six months, the project demonstrates that forms are not a standalone tool. They deliver the greatest value when connected to the wider LegalTech stack, allowing data, documents and workflows to work together consistently across the firm.

Training and Support

FormEvo worked closely with the Rothera Bray team throughout implementation to support adoption and help ensure the transition progressed smoothly.

Given the pace of the rollout, responsive support and clear communication were particularly important. The team valued FormEvo’s proactive approach and strong sense of ownership in resolving challenges as they arose. Direct involvement from FormEvo leadership also helped provide confidence and continuity throughout the implementation process.
