Why lawyers should not be afraid of Artificial Intelligence

Lawyers need to embrace innovation and new technologies if they want to ensure their economic survival. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based technology has revolutionized the legal profession. 

Certain tasks of the traditional lawyer can easily be outsourced to technology. That is no reason for panic. AI is just helping attorneys to manage data-intensive tasks more productively and efficiently and to make better and more well-informed decisions.

Be smart and innovative

Smart and innovative law firms embrace the advances in AI-based eDiscovery analytics to drastically increase the speed and improve the quality of their eDiscovery process. They use the latest analytic technologies to deliver higher quality services to their clients. All law firms of every size could and should. The benefits are clear.

With deep search and analytics, your team will understand the facts early in the process allowing you to focus on developing the best legal strategy for your client. It will also enable you to support your team to make the best use of review resources and do more work with your current team. This way you never have to pass on new opportunities because of capacity problems.

Early insights for a stronger case

By using analytics, lawyers can make decisions and plan legal strategies based on facts rather than instinct or assumptions. After all, early insights mean a stronger case, firmer negotiations, and the knowledge that you need to win. It also means improving productivity and precision of your team.
