THE CHALLENGE

Maintaining High-Quality Representation at Scale

Sand Law, LLC is a growing personal injury firm headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Known for its tenacious client advocacy and high standards of legal excellence, the firm handles a high volume of pre-litigation cases with a focus on delivering faster, fairer outcomes for injury victims.

In 2023, amid significant internal staffing changes, Sand Law faced a critical challenge—maintaining high-quality representation while continuing to grow.
Following staffing transitions that left just a few team members managing nearly 600 active cases, Sand Law needed to improve productivity without compromising client care. The manual process of writing demands—previously shouldered by Christin—was time-intensive and a bottleneck to scaling case resolution.

The firm needed an innovative solution to regain efficiency, reduce time on desk, and improve communication with insurers.

Enhancing Human Judgment with AI-Driven Efficiency

Sand Law implemented EvenUp’s AI-powered demand generation and medical chronology tools. EvenUp allowed the firm to dramatically improve both output and turnaround time, while also enhancing the quality and consistency of their demands.

By automating the most time-consuming aspects of demand creation and enabling quicker attorney review, EvenUp helped Sand Law regain control of its caseload and raise its standard of service.

Before EvenUp, I wrote approximately 25–30 demands per month full-time. With EvenUp, I maintained full-time hours but doubled output, saving Sand Law approximately 160 hours per month.
