“I use Paxton almost every day. It is an extremely good program, and they are continually upgrading it to make it better.”
One of the most striking moments in the webinar came from attorney Richard Herman, who talked about his usage of Paxton over time - what started as a good tool is consistently improving. Richard has built some serious prompting skills as you could see during the webinar - but Paxton is also getting better all the time!
This echoed a trend we see among firms adopting legal AI: once they use Paxton with real cases, it becomes part of their core workflow. Many tasks that once required hours of manual effort can now be completed in minutes.
Richard highlighted how immediately useful Paxton is when analyzing case materials:
“Paxton lets me analyze large data sets in a fraction of the time.”
For firms handling medical records, deposition transcripts, or large volumes of case documents, that efficiency has real impact.
Trust, accuracy, and legal grounding matter most
A major theme of the webinar was trust. Attorneys want AI that is transparent and anchored in real law. Richard captured this sentiment directly:
“Paxton gives you that confidence that everything it says is grounded in real law.”
Attendees appreciated that Paxton is built specifically for legal use and supports full verification. Every answer includes linked citations so attorneys can confirm the authority before relying on it.
Richard also emphasized the importance of security and responsible use:
“You need a system like Paxton that protects your information.”
Paxton’s HIPAA, SOC 2, and ISO certifications reinforce this, ensuring firms can use AI without compromising client confidentiality.
Paxton makes document-heavy work significantly faster
During the session, Aaron demonstrated how Paxton handles complex documents, turning disjointed materials into clear summaries, timelines, and draft-ready language. Richard echoed this point with his own experience:
“It turns medical records and deposition transcripts into quick turnaround work.”
This capability is especially valuable in areas like personal injury, employment, and litigation where case files come in irregular formats and large volumes.
Prompting effectively leads to better outputs
While Paxton performs reliably with simple instructions, the webinar highlighted several prompting practices that consistently improve results. These are the same habits Aaron teaches firms during onboarding:
Be clear about the task
Tell Paxton exactly what you want: a summary, a draft, a comparison, or a list of issues.
Provide case context
Jurisdiction, matter type, and purpose strengthen accuracy.
Keep instructions focused
Short, specific prompts produce stronger outputs than long paragraphs with mixed goals.
Iterate like you would with an associate
Ask Paxton to refine, reorganize, or rewrite. You remain the final reviewer.
Save prompts that work
High-performing prompts can become reusable templates within your firm.
These prompting techniques help lawyers work faster without sacrificing quality.
Why lawyers choose Paxton over other tools
A general AI tool is not designed for legal reasoning, document review, or citation integrity. The difference became clear during the webinar when Richard said:
“It is like having an associate who already knows your case.”
Paxton understands legal structure, reads complex documents, cites real authority, and stays within a secure closed system. Lawyers choose it because it delivers accuracy, speed, and reliability that general AI cannot match.
Final takeaway: prompting is a skill that multiplies Paxton’s impact
One of the biggest lessons from the webinar is that prompting is not complicated, but it is powerful. With clear instructions and a bit of structure, Paxton becomes dramatically more efficient, especially when handling multi-document workflows.
As Richard shared during the session:
“Once you see what it can do with your own documents, you do not want to go back.”
Paxton was built for exactly that experience: real legal work, delivered faster and with confidence.
