Norm Law Launches Washington, D.C. Office to Advance AI Legal Services
AI legal services are rapidly transforming the modern law firm, and Norm Law is at the forefront of this evolution. The AI-native law firm has officially opened a Washington, D.C. office, strategically positioning itself closer to the regulatory and legislative heart of AI governance in the United States.
Strategic Expansion Strengthens Expertise
The new D.C. office is more than just a geographic move for Norm Law. The firm welcomes two seasoned professionals: private funds attorney Katelyn Kimber and former Blackstone commercial contracts leader Lindsey B. W. Savage. Their addition significantly bolsters Norm Law’s capabilities in investment management, technology transactions, and data governance. By integrating these experts, Norm Law enhances its ability to provide specialized AI legal services to institutional clients navigating complex, regulated markets.
Norm Law’s expansion aligns seamlessly with its commitment to an outcome-based model tailored for clients in highly regulated sectors. Powered by Norm Ai’s agentic legal technology, the firm leverages cutting-edge AI tools to deliver swift, efficient, and highly accountable legal counsel.
Closer to the Epicenter of AI Regulation
Establishing a physical presence in Washington, D.C. allows Norm Law and its technology platform, Norm Ai, to be at the center where crucial laws and regulations are crafted. This move enables the firm to offer more agile responses and expert guidance on the ever-evolving landscape of AI governance. As the legal framework for AI continues to develop, being close to the decision-makers and regulators is a strategic advantage for both the firm and its clients.

AI Legal Services: Combining Technology with Human Judgment
Norm Law operates natively on Norm Ai’s advanced agentic technology, with senior attorneys supervising and calibrating AI agents to ensure accuracy and accountability. This innovative approach blends the speed and efficiency of AI with the critical legal judgment that institutional clients demand. The firm’s legal work is priced based on outcomes rather than billable hours, emphasizing value and results for clients.
John Nay, founder and CEO of Norm Ai, emphasized the importance of embedding laws and regulations directly into AI systems. “As AI agents take on increasingly consequential work, laws and regulations need to become part of how those systems operate,” he noted. With the new D.C. office, Norm Law is now even better positioned to influence and interpret the rules that govern AI, ensuring their clients receive the most up-to-date and effective AI legal services available.
Serving Leading Institutional Clients
Norm Ai and Norm Law already serve a client base representing over $35 trillion in combined assets under management. Their AI-driven legal agents are deployed by in-house legal teams and as outside counsel, providing critical support for investment managers, financial institutions, and technology companies.
Mike Schmidtberger, Chair of Norm Law, highlighted the value that Kimber and Savage bring: “Their arrival meaningfully expands the support we can provide to investment managers, financial institutions, and technology companies.”
