Legal AI company Harvey is opening a Dallas office

The rapidly growing artificial intelligence startup Harvey is opening a Dallas office, the company announced on Thursday.

Named for Harvey Specter, the smooth-talking corporate attorney from the cult-hit cable drama Suits, Harvey is an AI that can help lawyers draft and review legal documents, securely store information, automate certain tasks, and more.

The four-year-old startup already counts major law firms across the country as customers, including Dallas’ Vinson & Elkins, Haynes Boone, Jackson Walker and others. Harvey also partners with in-house legal teams at AT&T and engineering giant KBR.

“Proximity to customers matters,” said John Haddock, Chief Business Officer at Harvey, in a statement. “Being on the ground in Texas enables deeper partnership with legal teams as they integrate new tools into how they practice and operate.”

Business Briefing

Harvey, headquartered in San Francisco, was founded in 2022 by Winston Weinberg, a former litigator at a multinational law firm, and Gabriel Pereyra, previously a research scientist at Google DeepMind. Since then, it has raised more than $1 billion from backers like Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins and the Open AI Startup Fund.

According to Forbes, Harvey was most recently valued at $11 billion. With more than a thousand customers in 60-odd countries, the company hit $190 million in annual recurring revenue in 2025, according to a LinkedIn post from Weinberg.

Despite general fears that AI could be in the throes of a speculative bubble, there has been significant demand shown for domain-specific AIs like Harvey.

In fact, AI solutions like the one Harvey is offering have been roiling markets in recent days. Anthropic’s Claude lit the fuse last week when a new tool sparked widespread fears that AI could cannibalize traditional software meant for legal and accounting tasks.

More recently, the rollout of a tax-strategy tool from AI startup Altruist caused stocks for traditional companies in the space like Charles Schwab and Raymond James to get hammered. Meanwhile, the big players like OpenAI and Anthropic have been hiring subject-matter experts to help train their models.

While currently leading in the legal AI space, Harvey has broad competition from startups like Legora and Spellbook to new products from establish companies like Thomson Reuters’ CoCounsel.

Harvey had three offices — in San Francisco, New York and London — as of June, and has since announced new offices in Paris, Sydney and Toronto. It counts more than 500 employees.

The Dallas office is slated to open in April, and is hiring for roles.

“Texas is home to one in ten publicly traded companies in the US, 7% of the AmLaw 200, 54 Fortune 500 headquarters, and 3.5M small businesses,” Weinberg said.

“It’s a massive opportunity for Harvey and we want a team on the ground to support those organizations and their legal teams.”
