Schenck Price Competes Smarter with Lexis+ with Protégé

LexisNexis sat down with John Ursin, Managing Partner at Schenck Price, to learn how the firm is using legal AI to strengthen client service and daily legal work

NEW YORK, May 27, 2026 – As part of its industry insight series, LexisNexis^® Legal & Professional features Schenck Price, a full-service law firm based in New Jersey, highlighting how the firm is using Lexis+^® with Protégé^™ to support higher-quality legal work, strengthen client relationships, and compete more effectively in the Northern New Jersey/New York metro market.

"When it comes to choosing where to invest our resources in the tech space, it boils down to one word: Trust," said John Ursin, Managing Partner, Schenck Price. "The market is flooded with legal AI companies who make many promises. We needed to partner with LexisNexis due to its unmatched relationship with the legal sector and its long track record of providing the very best legal tools." 

Ursin emphasized the firm’s approach to legal AI as a strategic investment in better lawyering, not simply faster output. As larger firms continue to expand and client expectations rise, Schenck Price is focused on using AI to help its attorneys deliver sophisticated work efficiently while preserving the firm’s value as a strong regional player.

"We cannot compete and deliver without the right tools," said Ursin. "Our firm is investing heavily in the integration and adoption of legal AI technology. We are committed to delivering the highest level of legal services. AI is a central focus."

The firm underscores why trust played such a central role in Schenck Price’s decision to work with LexisNexis. In a legal AI market crowded with new entrants, the firm prioritized trusted legal data, long-standing industry credibility, and confidence that its technology partner could support attorney-client confidentiality and keep pace with rapid innovation.

LexisNexis worked closely with Schenck Price on training and enablement, helping support adoption through both foundational onboarding and smaller, practice-specific sessions. Ursin shared that the combination of trusted technology and ongoing guidance helped increase confidence and embed day-to-day use across the firm.

As a mid-size firm, Schenck Price is using AI to extend the reach of its lawyers and deliver work at a level often associated with significantly larger firms, without taking on more overhead.

"AI allows us, as a 100-attorney firm, to provide services more like a firm double our size. We use AI to amplify our talent and relationships," Ursin said.

The Schenck Price case study and video reflect LexisNexis’s continued commitment to helping law firms adopt and embed legal AI in practical, trusted ways that improve work quality and client service.
