About Wordstone
Wordstone Dispute Resolution is a specialized law firm dedicated to international arbitration and arbitration-related litigation. Founded by experienced arbitration practitioners, the firm handles both international commercial arbitration and investment arbitration across a wide range of industries.
The practice frequently involves complex and highly technical disputes. At its core, the firm’s work focuses on building strong, persuasive arguments that protect client interests and convince arbitral tribunals.
Eduardo Silva Romero, Founding Partner, leads a team that works on sophisticated, high-stakes matters where deep legal research and strategic analysis are critical.
The Opportunity
Operational Challenge
Research has always been fundamental to building winning arguments in international arbitration. Before Jus AI, research tasks were assigned to junior associates or interns and could take one to two weeks depending on complexity. This represented a significant time investment that delayed client responses and consumed resources on repetitive tasks.
Strategic Challenge
Modern law firms face mounting pressure to deliver Big Law quality with boutique efficiency. Clients increasingly ask whether firms are using AI tools to enhance efficiency. At the same time, lawyers struggle to find time for the strategic thinking that creates real value as they’re too busy executing routine tasks.
For a specialized firm like Wordstone, competing with large firms required tools that could level the playing field without sacrificing quality or comprehensiveness.
The Solution
Wordstone chose Jus AI for its unmatched access to arbitration intelligence. Through Jus Mundi‘s partnerships with over 100 institutions, Jus AI provides access to documents that are simply unavailable through other research platforms.
“One of the main reasons why we chose Jus AI is because of the contents that you can research through that tool within the Jus Mundi system,” Eduardo explains. “To give an example, Jus Mundi has a partnership with the ICC, and so only through Jus Mundi and Jus AI can we gain access to awards rendered in ICC matters. The research through Jus AI is more exhaustive, more complete than research you can try to accomplish with other systems.”
The Impact
Major Time Savings
The transformation has been immediate and measurable. Research that previously took one to two weeks now takes three minutes. Across the team, each lawyer saves approximately three hours per day, time that can be redirected to higher-value activities.
Faster, More Strategic Research
The firm uses Jus AI across multiple critical workflows:
- Arbitrator research: Analyzing decisions rendered by prospective or appointed arbitrators to understand how they approach key issues.
- Argument construction: Creating legal arguments supported by comprehensive precedent for written and oral submissions.
- Client assessments: Preparing detailed memoranda on the chances of success before clients commence arbitration.
“The legal component of the argument needs to be created through research, and this is something that Jus AI is very helpful for.” says Eduardo.
Better Use of Lawyer Time
Perhaps most significantly, Jus AI has changed how lawyers spend their days.
“Many times, research or preparing documentation are very boring tasks,” Eduardo notes. “Now, because of the time gained thanks to Jus AI, at all levels of our team, we are having more time to undertake activities which correspond more to what a lawyer should be.”
Competing with Big Law
For boutique firms, Jus AI provides a crucial competitive advantage.
“Now we can compete more easily with Big Law arbitration teams,” Eduardo explains. “Thanks to this tool, we may replace some of the systems that these big law firms have. Our team was, before we created our structure, a team in a big law firm. And so we know that today we can work as any other team, including teams in Big Law, without any difference.”
Closing Value
For Wordstone, Jus AI has delivered something rare in legal technology: measurable time savings combined with strategic advantage. By accelerating research from weeks to minutes, the firm has freed lawyers to focus on what matters most: thinking, strategy, and argument creation.
“We tend to have in front of us larger firms where they might have more manpower. By using Jus AI and leveraging the efficiency that the tool is bringing to us, we are able to go head-to-head against much larger teams—which also translates into cost efficiency for our client base.”
