2 min. readlast update: 02.10.2026

Before using Practice AI fully, your organization must be set up correctly. This ensures accurate outputs and a consistent firm identity across all work.

What Is an Organization in Practice AI?

In Practice AI, an organization represents one law firm. All users, cases, and documents live inside this single organization.

Think of it like this:

  • One organization = one firm

  • Multiple users = staff inside the firm

Settings applied at the organization level affect everyone’s outputs.


Where to Set Firm Name, Address, and Logo

You can manage firm details from the Organization or Firm Settings area.

Here you can enter:

  • Firm name

  • Office address

  • Contact details

  • Firm logo

This information may appear in documents, summaries, and letters.
