You mean like Lexis, Westlaw, LoisLaw, LegalZoom, and RocketLawyer have been doing for the past decade or so?
The problem is that at some point, you're paying a premium for a lawyer's skill in knowing what to do and for taking on the risk of being wrong, since you can sue the lawyer for malpractice if they fuck up.
Think of it like programmers: with all that open source code out there and all those GUIs, programmer's rates should be going down. Instead they're going up (at least for the good-to-great programmers): once the market has corrected for reduced costs, it readjusts upwards to correct for increased competition for talent.
