According to Gartner, “General counsel and other legal leaders responsible for legal and compliance technologies must cope with an increased volume and complexity of matters. They use the data and analytics that matter management provides to optimize work distribution among the in-house team, law firms, and Alternative Legal Service Providers (ALSPs).”^*

Furthermore, Gartner states, “that by 2025, legal departments will increase their spend on technology threefold" as many organizations: 

• “Seek matter management systems to improve efficiency, manage workloads, adhere to deadlines, and ensure timely, on-budget delivery of legal services to the business. 
• Use matter management as an opportunity to establish a data foundation for demonstrating value to the business and informing legal and risk decisions. 
• Require that matter management systems integrate with other applications, such as office productivity, document management, and CRM, established across the business"^*
