In a significant development for members of the Alabama State Bar, the bar association has approved the use of Querious as a member benefit, allowing its members access to the application at a discounted subscription rate. This approval introduces legal professionals in Alabama to a tool designed to enhance client communication through “conversational intelligence.”
Developed by attorney Hilary Bowman, Querious is heralded as the first legal conversational intelligence platform. It offers innovations such as real-time insight into client meetings, suggesting relevant legal issues, pertinent content, as well as questions and follow-ups. This makes it a valuable addition to the toolkit of practicing attorneys by automating and enhancing client interactions.
Beyond real-time meeting assistance, Querious also drafts a summary email, detailed notes, and billing entries post-meeting, thereby allowing attorneys to manage their time more effectively. According to Jillian Jordan Evans, practice management advisor for the Alabama State Bar, Querious is designed to support attorneys in conducting more insightful and confident client conversations. This aligns with the bar’s ongoing commitment to supporting their members with practical and innovative resources.
