Built for large legal firms with 100 or more attorneys
Client intake and CRM for the 100-plus-attorney legal firm where regulatory posture, lobbying disclosure, and client sector compliance all converge.
Large legal firms with regulatory, tax, employment, and government-affairs practices face intake complexity that AmLaw litigation templates miss. Lobbying registrations under HLOGA and LDA, Office of Government Ethics screening for lateral hires from government service, foreign-agent-registration disclosures, trade-sanctions compliance, and client-sector concentration tracking all run through the intake surface. Strkr's large-legal-firm template covers that compliance surface alongside the matter management, partner credit, and firm-wide governance primitives on the flat per-seat line.
Large legal firms with meaningful regulatory, tax, government-affairs, and employment practices face a compliance surface that generic AmLaw intake tools do not model. Lobbying activity registers quarterly under HLOGA, with disclosure obligations that need matter-level data to assemble. Office of Government Ethics (OGE) screening applies to lateral partners joining from federal government service with cooling-off periods, revolving-door restrictions, and matter-specific recusal obligations under 18 USC 207 and the Trump and Biden administration executive orders carrying through 2025. Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) disclosures apply where the firm represents foreign principals. Trade sanctions compliance (OFAC lists, Entity List, Specially Designated Nationals) applies at client-screening time. Client-sector concentration tracking matters because large firms with heavy exposure to a single sector (financial services, defense, pharmaceutical) carry different risk postures. A Washington DC 220-attorney regulatory-and-tax firm we spoke with runs 1,800 active matters across government affairs (34 percent), tax controversy (28 percent), employment (16 percent), antitrust (12 percent), and other regulatory practices (10 percent), with 42 lobbyists registered under LDA. The pain points below cover the shape of large-firm regulatory practice.
Lobbying registration and disclosure
LDA quarterly reports need matter-level data assembly.
Lobbying activity registers under the Lobbying Disclosure Act with quarterly LD-2 reports listing specific issues lobbied, chambers contacted, and compensation received. Assembling the quarterly report at a firm with 42 registered lobbyists across 180 active engagements means pulling matter-level data from the practice management system, cross-referencing to the registration file, and formatting for Clerk-of-House submission. Strkr's LDA workflow pulls the structured data natively.
OGE screening for lateral hires
Former government officials carry recusal obligations.
Lateral partners joining from federal government service bring recusal obligations under 18 USC 207 (one-year cooling-off from direct dealings with the former agency, lifetime bar from substantive matters previously handled, two-year senior-official restrictions). The CRM has to track the recusal perimeter per lateral so matter staffing respects the obligations. Strkr's OGE screening module captures the recusal perimeter and applies it to matter staffing proposals.
FARA disclosure obligations
Foreign-principal matters need registration flags.
Representation of foreign principals (foreign governments, foreign political parties, foreign corporations where the direction serves foreign principal interests) triggers Foreign Agents Registration Act obligations with 10-day initial filing and semiannual supplemental filings. Horizontal CRMs do not model foreign-principal flags. Strkr's FARA screening at intake flags matters requiring registration before engagement commences.
OFAC and sanctions screening
Client screening against SDN and Entity Lists.
Client intake requires screening against OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list, Entity List, Denied Persons List, and other trade-sanctions registries. Manual screening via Treasury search is slow and misses update cycles. Strkr's native sanctions screening runs at intake with weekly refresh against updated lists so an existing client flagged post-engagement surfaces for review.
Client-sector concentration
Managing committee needs sector-mix visibility.
Large firms with heavy exposure to a single client sector carry different risk postures: financial-services exposure during banking-crisis cycles, pharmaceutical exposure during PBM-reform cycles, defense exposure during contracting-reform cycles. The managing committee needs structured visibility. Strkr's client-sector tagging and concentration dashboard surfaces the mix with trend analysis.
Multi-jurisdiction retention complexity
DC, New York, California offices each run different retention.
Large firms with offices across DC, New York, California, Virginia, and other jurisdictions face per-office retention variability. DC runs 5-year retention, New York 7-year, California 5-year, Virginia 5-year. Legal holds propagate firm-wide but retention clocks run per office. Strkr's office-aware retention runs the correct clock per office while legal holds respect firm-wide propagation.
The large-legal-firm regulatory primitives
What a regulatory-heavy large firm has to model.
The cards below cover what Strkr ships natively on the large-legal-firm template for firms with meaningful regulatory, government-affairs, tax, and employment practices.
LDA workflow
Quarterly disclosure report assembly.
The LDA workflow tracks registered lobbyists against active engagements, captures specific issues lobbied per matter, logs chambers contacted and officials met, and compiles compensation per registered client. The quarterly LD-2 report assembles automatically with Clerk-of-House formatting ready for submission. Semiannual LD-203 contribution reports pull from the campaign-finance-adjacent capture.
OGE screening
Recusal perimeter per lateral from government.
Lateral partners from federal government service capture a structured recusal perimeter: direct-dealing restrictions (one year), lifetime bar on substantive matters, two-year senior-official restrictions, and any administration-specific executive-order constraints. Matter-staffing proposals surface the perimeter and flag conflicts before assignment. Documentation preserves for OGE audit response.
FARA screening
Foreign-principal flags at intake.
Intake form captures foreign-principal factors (foreign-government principal, foreign-party principal, foreign-corporation principal under direction serving foreign interests) and flags matters that require FARA registration. The 10-day initial filing workflow fires on engagement. Semiannual supplemental filings pull from matter activity data.
OFAC and sanctions screening
Real-time check against SDN, Entity, DPL lists.
Client intake runs structured identity data against OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list, Entity List, Denied Persons List, Sectoral Sanctions Identifications List, and Palestinian Legislative Council List. Weekly refresh runs against existing clients. Match surfaces to the firm compliance partner for review. False-positive patterns tune the matching heuristic over time.
Client-sector concentration dashboard
Managing committee quarterly review.
Every client captures a primary client sector at intake (financial services, pharmaceutical, defense, energy, technology, consumer products, real estate, media, nonprofit, foreign sovereign, trade association, and more). The concentration dashboard rolls up new-matter revenue and current revenue by sector with trend analysis. Quarterly managing-committee reviews run on structured data.
Office-aware retention
Per-office retention clocks with firm-wide hold.
Retention clocks run per office jurisdiction: DC 5-year, New York 7-year, California 5-year, Virginia 5-year, Massachusetts 7-year, Illinois 7-year. Legal holds propagate firm-wide but retention clocks run office-aware. The retention policy admin surface configures per office with state-bar-rule defaults pre-populated.
Government-contract flow-down
DFARS, FAR, GSA flags on matters.
Matters involving government contracting (defense primes, GSA schedule holders, federal subcontractors) flag the applicable regulatory flow-downs: DFARS 7012 for defense, FAR Part 15 for competitive negotiation, GSA MAS requirements, Buy American Act, Trade Agreements Act. The flags surface on the matter record for the staffing attorney and compliance partner.
Inside-counsel referral tracking
Fortune 500 GC relationships rolled up.
Large legal firms acquire new business heavily through inside-counsel referrals, panel-counsel designations, and request-for-proposal cycles. The referral attribution tracks named inside-counsel contacts, panel-counsel renewal dates, RFP response history, and win-rate per inside-counsel relationship. Business-development partners see which GC relationships drive revenue and which have gone quiet.
Panel-counsel and RFP management
Multi-firm panel membership tracking.
Panel-counsel memberships (Fortune 500 outside-counsel panels, insurance-defense panels, government-contracting panels) capture structured data: panel name, renewal date, scope-of-work categories, rate-cap commitments, performance scorecards. RFP response workspace supports the structured response that corporate procurement requires with past-performance data pulled from matter records.
Where Strkr fits the large legal firm
The shape of a Strkr-fit large legal firm.
Large legal firms span pure litigation shops through regulatory-practice powerhouses. The cards below describe which shapes fit Strkr's large-legal-firm template.
Regulatory and government-affairs firms
100-plus-attorney DC and state-capital practices.
DC regulatory and state-capital government-affairs firms with 100-plus attorneys fit the template's LDA, OGE, FARA, and sanctions-screening primitives cleanly. The quarterly disclosure workflow and OGE recusal perimeter track natively.
Tax controversy practices
IRS and state-tax dispute specialists.
Tax-controversy firms running IRS Appeals, Tax Court, federal district court, and state-tax dispute matters fit the matter-type-specific intake with structured controversy capture. Statute-of-limitations tracking under IRC 6501 and 6531 runs natively.
Employment and labor firms
Management-side employment with EEOC and NLRB practice.
Management-side employment firms with 100-plus attorneys handling EEOC charges, NLRB unfair-labor-practice responses, OSHA citations, and wage-and-hour collective actions fit the matter-type template. Multi-plaintiff tracking supports collective-action administration.
Antitrust and competition firms
DOJ and FTC merger-review specialists.
Antitrust and competition firms running merger reviews before DOJ Antitrust Division and FTC, premerger notifications under HSR, and civil-investigative-demand response fit the matter-type template with structured counterparty capture and HSR-filing workflow.
International trade firms
Customs, export controls, sanctions compliance.
International-trade firms running customs matters at CBP, export-control compliance under EAR and ITAR, and sanctions compliance under OFAC programs fit the template with native sanctions-list integration. The export-control classification workflow supports ECCN and USML determinations.
When Strkr does not fit
Pure-litigation AmLaw with no regulatory practice.
Pure-litigation AmLaw firms with no meaningful regulatory, tax, government-affairs, or international-trade practice typically find the general large-law-firm template (client-intake-and-crm-software-for-large-law-firms) a better fit than the regulatory-focused large-legal-firm template. The regulatory primitives add overhead without value for a pure-litigation shop.
How a 220-attorney regulatory firm runs on Strkr
The weekly rhythm at a DC regulatory-and-tax practice.
The cards below describe the weekly rhythm at the DC 220-attorney regulatory-and-tax firm referenced earlier: 1,800 active matters, 42 registered lobbyists, 34 percent government-affairs mix.
Monday intake triage
Weekend inquiries with sanctions and FARA screens.
Monday morning intake coordinators review weekend inquiries. Each new client runs OFAC and sanctions screening automatically. Matters involving foreign-principal signals route to the FARA screening workflow. The screening results surface before the intake-call scheduling for the business-development partner.
Tuesday lateral screening
OGE recusal perimeter capture for new government hires.
Tuesday is dedicated to any lateral intake. For laterals coming from federal government service, the OGE screening module captures the structured recusal perimeter with the former agency, position dates, substantive matters previously handled, and senior-official status. The perimeter applies to matter-staffing proposals going forward.
Wednesday LDA quarterly compile
LD-2 reports assemble automatically for CFO review.
In the LDA quarterly cycle (January 20, April 20, July 20, October 20 deadlines), Wednesday of the compile week runs the automated LD-2 report assembly. Matter-level issue capture, chambers contacted, officials met, and compensation per registered client aggregate into the Clerk-of-House submission format. The CFO reviews and the compliance partner signs.
Thursday matter staffing
Staffing proposals respect OGE perimeters.
Thursday matter-staffing meetings review new-matter assignments. The staffing partner sees OGE recusal perimeters for the laterals under consideration. Matters triggering recusal for a particular lateral surface the conflict and route to alternate staffing without the gaffe of discovering the recusal after the matter opens.
Friday managing committee dashboard
Client-sector concentration review.
Friday morning the managing committee reviews the client-sector concentration dashboard. Current-quarter new-matter revenue by sector surfaces: government affairs 34 percent, tax controversy 28 percent, employment 16 percent, antitrust 12 percent, other regulatory 10 percent. Trend analysis flags shifts that warrant business-development attention.
Panel-counsel renewal cycle
Fortune 500 outside-counsel panel renewals.
The business-development partner reviews upcoming panel-counsel renewals monthly. The renewal workflow pulls past-performance data from matter records, prepares the renewal response, and schedules the GC relationship touch. Panel renewals that typically ran reactive now run proactive with 90-day runway.
Head-to-head

How teams use Strkr
How large legal firms run Strkr.
The firms below picked Strkr for the regulatory, lobbying, OGE, and sanctions-screening primitives that general CRM tools do not model. The outcomes measure in disclosure accuracy, recusal-breach prevention, and panel-counsel renewal rates.
DC regulatory firm, 220 attorneys
LDA quarterly compile cut from 180 hours to 14 hours.
A 220-attorney DC regulatory and tax firm with 42 registered lobbyists had been compiling LDA quarterly LD-2 reports through a 180-hour analyst sprint each quarter. Strkr's native LD-2 workflow pulled matter-level issue capture, chambers contacted, and compensation per registered client automatically. The Q2 2025 compile ran in 14 hours. The compliance partner called it the single most impactful operational investment of the year.
Northern Virginia defense firm, 140 attorneys
OGE recusal perimeter prevented a disqualifying staffing proposal.
A 140-attorney Northern Virginia defense and government-contracting firm had hired 6 lateral partners from federal government service in 2024. The manual recusal tracking relied on partner memory. Strkr's OGE screening module captured structured recusal perimeters and surfaced two staffing-proposal conflicts in Q1 2025 that would have required withdrawal if the matter had opened. The ethics-committee chair cited the prevention as a career-saving outcome for one of the laterals.
International trade firm, 120 attorneys
FARA screening flagged three foreign-principal matters at intake.
A 120-attorney international-trade firm had been running FARA screening as a post-engagement review that occasionally caught registration gaps. Strkr's intake-level FARA screening with structured foreign-principal factor capture flagged three matters at intake in Q2 2025 as requiring FARA registration before the 10-day deadline. The firm filed all three on time, avoiding what would have been late-filing exposure under DOJ enforcement patterns.
New York employment firm, 180 attorneys
Panel-counsel renewal rate lifted from 68 to 91 percent.
A 180-attorney New York management-side employment firm had been running panel-counsel renewals reactive, missing 32 percent of Fortune 500 panel renewals in 2023 for failing to respond to the 90-day RFP window. Strkr's panel-counsel renewal workflow with 90-day runway and automated past-performance assembly lifted renewal rate to 91 percent in 2025. The business-development partner cited the panel-counsel improvement as the primary ROI event.

OFAC and sanctions screening with weekly refresh. Client-sector concentration dashboard. Panel-counsel renewal workflow. Flat per-seat Scale tier with Strkr AI included.
How does the LDA quarterly workflow actually work?
Registered lobbyists under the Lobbying Disclosure Act capture structured registration data: client name, specific lobbying issues, chambers contacted, agencies contacted, and compensation received. Each lobbying-engagement matter captures issue-level data (specific House and Senate committees contacted, specific legislation referenced, specific officials met, allocation of lobbyist time) and compensation data. The quarterly compile workflow aggregates matter-level data into the LD-2 Clerk-of-House submission format with electronic-signature capture by the firm compliance partner. The semiannual LD-203 contribution report pulls from campaign-finance-adjacent capture. Both filings produce audit-grade output for the LDA retention period.
How does OGE screening handle the various government-ethics restrictions?
Lateral partners joining from federal government service capture a structured recusal perimeter with the former agency, position title and dates, substantive matters previously handled, senior-official status under 5 USC 2635.502, and administration-specific executive-order constraints (such as EO 13770 under Trump, EO 13989 under Biden). The perimeter applies to matter-staffing proposals so a staffing proposal that would trigger 18 USC 207 one-year direct-dealing restrictions, lifetime bar on substantive matters previously handled, or two-year senior-official restrictions flags before matter opening. The documentation preserves for OGE audit response and firm-ethics-committee review.
What about FARA registration workflow?
The Foreign Agents Registration Act requires 10-day initial registration after engagement for representation of foreign principals (foreign governments, foreign political parties, foreign corporations where the direction serves foreign principal interests). Intake form captures structured factors (principal type, principal nationality, nature of direction, scope of activities). Matters flagged for FARA registration trigger the registration workflow with form assembly, firm compliance partner review, and DOJ submission. Semiannual supplemental filings pull from matter activity data (specific political activities, informational materials disseminated, financial transactions). The workflow aligns with DOJ FARA Unit enforcement patterns.
How does OFAC and sanctions screening handle false positives?
Client intake runs structured identity data (legal name, aliases, dates of birth or incorporation, nationality, addresses) against OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list, Entity List, Denied Persons List, Sectoral Sanctions Identifications List, and Palestinian Legislative Council List. Matches surface to the firm compliance partner with the match-basis explanation (name match, address match, nationality match, affiliate match). The compliance partner clears or escalates each match. False-positive patterns tune the matching heuristic over time, with the firm's compliance team configuring the match-strictness threshold (fuzzy match tolerance, phonetic matching, name-component weighting). Weekly refresh runs against existing clients so a client that was clean at engagement but added to a list later surfaces for review.
How does the client-sector concentration dashboard inform management?
Every client captures a primary client sector at intake across a structured taxonomy (financial services, pharmaceutical, defense and aerospace, energy, technology, consumer products, real estate, media, nonprofit, foreign sovereign, trade association, and more). The concentration dashboard rolls up new-matter revenue and current-matter revenue by sector with 4-quarter and 8-quarter trend. The managing committee quarterly review runs on structured data: sectors with growing concentration surface for risk discussion, sectors with declining revenue surface for business-development attention, and cross-sector matter patterns inform strategic planning. The dashboard supports drill-down to specific clients within a sector for granular inspection.
What is the pricing model at 100-plus-attorney scale?
Strkr Scale tier runs $125 per seat per month with the large-legal-firm template and enterprise support included on volume commitments at 100-plus seats. The commercial conversation at this scale typically runs flat-line against the stitched Intapp Open plus Elite Enterprise plus custom LDA tooling plus sanctions service plus manual OGE tracking stack. A 220-seat deployment annualizes to around $330K on Scale tier. The equivalent large-legal-firm stitched stack typically annualizes between $500K and $900K depending on LDA and OGE custom-build depth and sanctions-service vendor selection, so the flat-line math typically delivers 35 to 60 percent reduction with the integrated workflow in place.
