THE PRACTICAL PROBLEM

AI adoption is moving faster than many firms' controls.

Lawyers are already experimenting with general-purpose and specialist legal AI. The challenge is understanding where that use creates value, where it creates exposure, and what the firm should do next.

01

AI use is fragmented

Different teams may be using Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude or specialist legal AI in very different ways.

02

Controls may be informal

Staff may understand that AI output should be checked without having a consistent verification process.

03

Governance feels complicated

Policies, training, confidentiality, vendor review and human oversight can quickly become difficult to prioritise.
