In 2025, AI moved from being a promising add-on to an essential part of legal practice. Rapid advances in technology are reshaping the daily operations of law firms and in-house teams—streamlining processes, improving accuracy, and opening the door to new forms of innovation.
Tasks that once relied solely on manual effort—document management, research, drafting, billing, client communication—are now seamlessly supported by integrated AI tools. Legal intelligence platforms allow practitioners to deliver faster, deeper, and more strategic advice. At the same time, modern practice management systems combine automation with real-time analytics to transform how legal services are delivered.
But this transformation also brings weighty responsibilities. As issues around bias, accountability, and the preservation of human legal judgment come into sharper focus, ethical and transparent adoption of AI is becoming non-negotiable.
Lawyers Weekly’s AI and the Future of Legal Practice examines the rise of domain-specific AI tools and highlights how they are redefining legal work and preparing practitioners for the next era of the profession. The guide draws on insights from leading experts across eight core areas:
- Chronology
