About Jacquemoud & Stanislas
A third-generation Geneva firm built for specialisation
Jacquemoud & Stanislas is a 30-person law firm based in Geneva, founded in its current form in 2013 by Philippe Jacquemoud and Marc Balavoine. The firm operates across four tightly focused practice areas — transactional law, infrastructure & real estate, arbitration & commercial litigation, and health law — serving clients in luxury, finance, commodities trading, and the healthcare sector, with a strong French client base.
The Challenge
Complex matters, massive document loads, tight deadlines
For a litigation-heavy practice like Jacquemoud & Stanislas, the bottleneck was never legal strategy — it was document processing. Before an arbitration hearing, a lawyer could face 500 or more documents to read, classify, and cross-reference. That manual work could consume an entire week, leaving less time for the analysis that actually wins cases.
The firm had explored building their own AI system internally, but the key requirement was non-negotiable: the solution had to be entirely confidential. Client data could not leave a secured environment.
“The most obvious advantage is time gained — it makes us not just faster, but qualitatively better in everything we produce.”
The Solution
Whisperit as a confidential analysis engine and sparring partner
The firm adopted Whisperit as their primary AI tool — the only one used in a fully confidential setting. Lawyers import case files directly, then query them for specific witnesses, timelines, email threads, and strategic angles. What previously required days of manual sorting is now done in hours.
- 500+ documents ingested and queryable in one case workspace
- Witness identification and cross-reference across emails and exhibits
- Hearing preparation checklists generated and stress-tested by AI
- Dictation of briefs and memos directly into formatted documents
- Confidential by design — no data leaves the secured environment
“Whisperit is the only tool I use in a confidential setting. What used to take several days of reading and sorting can now be done in hours. It's the ideal sparring partner for sharpening our reasoning.”
The Results
Faster preparation, sharper strategy, better output
Across the firm, Whisperit has changed what it means to be prepared. Lawyers arrive at hearings having already queried their documents, tested their arguments against AI-generated counterpoints, and refined their key lines. Time recovered from document processing is reinvested into higher-value strategic work — and the quality of the output shows.
In Philippe Jacquemoud's words: “Performance, conviviality, and vision” — the three words he uses to describe Whisperit. For Arnaud Nussbaumer, it comes down to three pillars: “Confidentiality, case analysis, sparring partner.”
