Not long ago, the question shaping conversations about AI in law firms came from leadership: should we be using AI at all? As adoption has accelerated across the profession, that question has largely been answered, (yes). Today, a different one is shaping how firms approach AI.

Access to justice has never stood still. Throughout history, the way legal support is delivered has evolved alongside social change, professional practice and technological development.

GenAI has quickly reshaped expectations in legal work, making it possible to extract information from contracts faster and more flexibly than ever before.

When lawyers in the UK High Court cited cases generated by consumer-grade AI that didn't exist, it sent shockwaves through the legal profession. But this wasn't an isolated incident. Similar cases in the U.S. have exposed a critical gap — the difference between freely available AI tools and professional-grade legal technology.

There is understandable caution around the idea that AI could become ‘mandatory’ in legal practice. Strictly speaking, there is no rule requiring lawyers to use AI on cases, and I do not believe we are at the point where anyone can say it is compulsory.
