The Challenge

When Jordan Travis joined his father's personal injury practice five years ago, he brought fresh perspectives to a firm with deep roots. Todd Travis had built the practice over two decades with an emphasis on personal injury and insurance cases. But as their reputation grew, so did their workload.

The two attorneys found themselves spending evenings and weekends poring over medical records and expert testimonies. Paper files stacked up. Trial preparation stretched into weeks. The backlog worsened when Jordan took an extended leave, leaving his father to manage their cases alone.

The paperwork was overwhelming, and Todd often found himself missing family dinners to search for contradictions in expert testimony that he knew existed but couldn't easily locate.

The Solution

The turning point came when Travis Legal adopted Supio, a legal AI platform designed to streamline case management. The system centralized their documents and used artificial intelligence to flag inconsistencies in testimony and medical records - work that previously consumed hours of attorney time.

"I've used Supio in multiple cases regarding doctors hired by the insurance companies, including some cases that are active and others that have settled," Todd explained. "In each case, I would say the identification of inconsistencies has assisted us in getting at least 20-30% more - either in offers on the table or settlements that have been accepted."

Rather than hiring additional paralegals at $80,000 to $100,000 annually, the firm found that the software complemented their existing team by automating specialized tasks like creating medical chronologies and analyzing expert reports.

The Results

The efficiency gains were immediate. The attorneys trimmed trial preparation from three weeks to a few days. When Jordan returned from leave, they cleared their backlog in a matter of weeks.

In one trucking case, Supio identified a critical contradiction in an insurance company doctor's testimony. The doctor had claimed an injury wasn't accident-related, despite previously acknowledging that similar incidents could cause such injuries. Armed with this insight, Travis Legal increased the settlement offer fourfold, ultimately securing a $3 million payout.

Another case involving expert testimony contradictions resulted in a $740,000 settlement - approximately seven times higher than the initial offer.

Beyond the financial impact, both attorneys found something even more valuable: time. Todd, who had long struggled to balance professional demands with family life, now finds himself making it home for dinner more often.

As they look toward expanding their practice, the father-son team remains focused on what brought them together in the first place: delivering personalized representation while honoring their commitment to family.

For the Travis family, the technology hasn't replaced the human element of their practice. Instead, it has given them the time to be more present - both with their clients and with each other.
