A major Australian bank sought our independent advice on a $185,000 litigation budget. They were concerned this budget wasn’t focused on their primary objective: to resolve the matter through mediation.
Our approach:
We categorised all legal work into three streams: necessary, likely, and possible. Only work that was necessary for successful mediation was approved in the budget.
The outcome:
The matter was successfully resolved through mediation. The final cost to the bank was just $31,000—a reduction of more than 80% compared to the original proposal.
A State Government Statutory Authority had terminated a major manufacturing contract and was facing a $250 million damages lawsuit. This presented significant legal costs and reputational risks.
Our approach:
Applying our methodology, we helped the Authority identify and pursue a $100 million counterclaim for wasted costs.
The outcome:
The Authority successfully recovered $56 million from the manufacturing company.
In parallel, we identified and delivered $1.65 million in legal savings.
A large Australian construction company had engaged a top-tier law firm for a complex tax litigation matter. Despite an agreed scope and budget, the firm submitted an additional $250,000 invoice for unapproved work.
Our approach:
The AllyOne platform flagged the overcharge in real-time, alerting the company to the deviation before payment was processed.
The outcome:
The issue was resolved swiftly with the law firm. Following this, the law firm strictly adhered to the agreed budget and proactively flagged any required changes.
An Australian public company was spending $250,000 per month on litigation driven by a dispute with a minority shareholder. This litigation was obstructing their ability to resolve ASIC regulatory compliance issues.
Our approach:
Using the Allygroup methodology, we realigned the company’s legal strategy to focus on their priority outcome: resolving their ASIC compliance challenge.
The outcome:
The company resolved their regulatory compliance challenge and was able to end the litigation and save an ongoing $250k a month in legal fees.
