It’s a question you’ve likely been grappling with more and more lately as you hear about your peers adopting AI: Where does your firm stand on legal AI adoption?
AI is rapidly transforming legal work, with new AI solutions emerging to assist with everything from streamlining document review to optimizing caseload distribution and beyond. Increasingly,
Every case, regardless of its origin, is rife with legal documents. For instance, when drafting legal motions, it’s crucial to catch grammar, punctuation, and citation errors that could weaken an argument or undermine credibility. Whether you’re a lawyer, a paralegal, or in academics, legal proofreading software can go above and beyond generic proofreading
Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly reshaping the legal industry—boosting efficiency, cutting costs, and improving client experiences while reducing manual work for legal professionals. But it’s not magic.
Just as installing a high-tech engine on a car with flat tires won’t get you far (and probably isn’t the safest choice), simply adding AI to outdated systems
Motions for a change of venue are often associated with high profile cases, largely due to the amount of pretrial publicity. Compared to other legal motions, a motion for change in venue is less common, but equally as important.

Employment law lead generation can be a complex and challenging process for many employment lawyers, particularly as they look to stand out in an inherently competitive and increasingly oversaturated market. However, it’s also an essential consideration for a firm’s ability to ensure a steady flow of new clients and scale their business over the long
Cross-examination is the stuff of drama in fictional courtroom depictions. The savvy lawyer taking on a hostile witness on the stand—these are the moments TV and movie audiences live for. However, the truth is real-life cross-examinations are far less dramatic and more nuanced, requiring solid preparation and strategy. This is why a real-life trial lawyer
In just a few years, artificial intelligence (AI) tools in the legal industry have gone from being something primarily for innovators and trailblazers to becoming increasingly common for law firms of all sizes. According to our latest Legal Trends Report, 79% of legal professionals use AI in some capacity in their practice, and 84%
By now, most lawyers are familiar with the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI). With nearly three-quarters of a law firm’s hourly billable tasks potentially exposed to automation by AI, there’s seemingly no limit to the ways AI can be leveraged in modern law firms.

The demand for immigration legal services is soaring. Between 2023 and 2024, a net of 2.8 million people migrated to the US, while Canada welcomed nearly half a million new residents.

Technology has come so far that chatbots handling basic tasks and answering questions are no longer a novelty. But generating comprehensive, in-depth research reports in minutes? That’s something AI hasn’t fully delivered—until now.
On February 2, 2025, OpenAI launched Deep Research, an AI agent built to generate detailed reports on complex topics with remarkable
Today’s legal landscape is fast-paced, which is why law firms are increasingly turning to virtual receptionists to enhance their efficiency and client service. Remote receptionists–professionals who are not employees of your law firm, but who take on reception duties–handle everything from answering calls and scheduling appointments to client intake. This allows attorneys to focus on
Accurate time tracking for lawyers is key, not just for billing but also for building client trust, staying compliant, and keeping the firm profitable. Yet, manual tracking can be tough to stay on top of when lawyers are focused on tackling important legal work for their clients.
Despite the rise of automated time-tracking tools,
