The strategy focuses on leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to transform legal services by improving quality, speed, and efficiency. It has a clear objective of transitioning AI from being a mere tool to a core capability within three years. For instance, the integration of AI into legal research could include using specialized AI tools to quickly access and analyze vast legal databases, saving lawyers hours or even days in manual research time.
To achieve these goals, the strategy includes diverse action items such as automating document review processes. For example, AI can quickly scan and identify important clauses in legal documents, significantly recovering time typically spent on tedious manual reviews. Additionally, enhancing client interaction using AI tools like chatbots can streamline initial consultations, offering real-time responses and increasing client satisfaction.
