Protégé™ In CourtLink® Explains The Whole Case Faster
Designed to reduce manual docket work by prioritizing what litigators need most: on-demand full docket summarization that explains the whole case to date, followed by on-demand document summaries for filing triage, and AI-powered natural language searching for faster search and retrieval.
The two non-master bedroooms on the main floor are on the small side, at least for an apartment of this fabulosity. It’s slightly weird that the bedrooms open into the dining room. And it’s too bad that part of the roof is shared with other residents.
But let’s not nitpick: this is an amazing apartment, with lots of character, and its oddities merely reflect how unique and interesting a space it is. To be honest, it’s a little surprising that lawyers from Davis Polk, that most Establishment of law firms, lived for so many years in such a quirky place, in such an artsy neighborhood. I would have expected them to reside in, say, a prewar co-op on Fifth Avenue.
Where are Ulrika Ekman and Peter Douglas headed next? Hopefully this fairy-tale couple has found a new residence that’s just as royal. May they live happily ever after.
