Partnering to Move the Legal Industry Forward
Together, we have developed an open source standard taxonomy that connects firms, clients, and systems through consistent matter data, unlocking transparency, analytics, and strategic insight across the legal ecosystem.
Introducing SALI
The Legal Matter Specification Standard (LMSS), published by the SALI Alliance, is the legal industry’s shared language for describing legal work. By enabling consistent classification of matters, time, documents, and organizations, firms and legal departments gain clearer insight into experience, cost, and performance.
Media & Announcements
The SALI Alliance, the nonprofit organization behind the legal industry’s shared taxonomy for describing legal work, today announced a full organizational rebrand and redesigned website that reflect the elegance, clarity, and interoperability at the core of its Legal Matter Specification Standard (LMSS).
We’ve migrated our taxonomy viewer to a new platform where you can now browse the standard without logging in.
SALI adoption is accelerating. Firms are no longer just labelling data — they’re building it into their AI and data strategies, using structured matter data to make better decisions on pricing, business development, and risk.
