For firms and consultancies
When a client asks the AI who understands the subject, the answer needs your partner's name.
For firms and consultancies, CDE manages the authority of each partner and each practice area: an authority page, explanatory articles citing statutes, courts and official bodies, your bar association's advertising rules applied in QA, no two areas competing for the same search, and monthly tracking of AI citations by legal topic.
The pain, in three scenes
What happens when the expertise stays inside the firm.
The partner nobody finds
Twenty years in tax law, no signed article, no page. The AI cites the competitor who wrote.
The article everyone has already written
"What is data protection law" for the thousandth time, with no angle, no case and no source. It doesn't rank, isn't cited and brings no client.
Two areas, one question
Employment and pensions publish on the same topic; the search engine can't tell which to show, and ends up showing neither.
On day 1
Eight things ready before the first article.
- An authority page per partner, with bar registration, education, areas and articles.
- Practice areas as topic territories, each with its main article.
- Your bar's advertising rules as policy in QA: informative, no soliciting, no promises, no fees.
- Allowed sources: legislation, higher courts, local courts, regulators and the doctrine you nominate.
- A live-link check on every legal citation.
- A lawyer reviewing before publishing.
- Cannibalisation blocked: one question, one article, one area.
- Your market's questions tracked in AI answers, by area.
No cannibalisation
One question, one article, one area. Always.
Before writing, CDE compares the topic with everything the firm has already published. Too similar and it blocks, offering angles not yet covered. The areas cooperate instead of competing, and each area's main article concentrates the authority.
Angles it proposes
- The same topic for a mid-sized company
- What changed this year
- The practical case, end to end
Sources the AI respects
- Statute and official text
- Binding precedent and rulings
- Regulations and official guidance
What QA does
- A claim with no source is flagged
- A contradiction with the source is blocked
- A dead link becomes a task
In law, the source is the argument
Every legal claim is cross-checked against the source that supports it.
Statutes, precedents, rulings and official guidance go in with live links, checked weekly. A claim with no source is flagged; a contradiction is blocked. That is what makes the AI pick your article to answer with — and what protects the firm.
Plans
What usually makes sense here.
Presence, for a firm with one site and 30 articles a month, with review on everything legal. Authority, for several areas and partners, with 80 articles a month.
