Legal Ops: One System, Many Products

geniant partnered with a global leader in legal technology to audit disparate interfaces across a multi-product portfolio, establish a shared design language, and ship a Figma library mapped to production-ready components — with governance, contribution guidelines, and WCAG-aligned checks built in.

Legal ops unified design system — component library and dashboard UI

One system

spanning consumer and professional products

A single design system replaced a fragmented collection of siloed product UIs — giving teams across consumer and professional lines a shared foundation to build from.

Ship faster

without reinventing UI or accumulating design debt

Versioning, governance, and accessibility checks built into the operational backbone — so teams ship consistent features faster without recreating components or drifting off-brand.

The Opportunity

Unifying a multi-product legal tech portfolio under a shared design language — without slowing teams down.

Across a global legal technology portfolio spanning consumer and professional products, design had accumulated organically — different teams, different tooling, different visual languages. The result was inconsistency at every touchpoint: duplicated components, accessibility gaps, and development time lost rebuilding UI from scratch on each release.

The business needed a system that didn't just look unified — it needed the operational infrastructure to stay unified as the portfolio grew and new contributors joined.

The Solution

Audit, shared design language, and a production-ready Figma library — with governance built into every layer.

geniant began with a comprehensive audit of existing interfaces across the product portfolio — cataloguing components, patterns, and divergences to identify what to unify, what to consolidate, and what to deprecate. From that foundation, we established a shared design language and shipped a Figma library mapped directly to production-ready components.

The system ships with contribution guidelines, versioning protocols, and WCAG-aligned accessibility checks — the operational backbone that lets teams evolve the system without breaking it. Consumer and professional products now share a single source of truth for UI, enabling consistent features and eliminating design debt accumulation.
