The image of lawyers spending late nights buried in law libraries has largely faded. Today’s legal professionals increasingly work from home, in court, or while travelling, without losing access to the tools they rely on.
Mobile applications have reshaped modern legal workflows, giving lawyers greater flexibility, faster access to information, and more efficient ways to serve clients. Across the profession, mobile technology has become a core part of day-to-day legal work, supporting drafting, research, collaboration, and communication outside the traditional office environment.
Mobile apps have become essential tools for lawyers who need to stay productive while away from their desks. They support efficient workflows, enable secure communication, and help legal professionals stay informed about developments that may affect their matters.
Some of the most common use cases include:
Mobile apps allow lawyers to access legal research databases remotely, whether they are working from home, travelling, or preparing for a court appearance. With case law, legislation, and legal commentary available on demand, lawyers can research issues and review authorities without being tied to a desktop computer.
Legal professionals can draft, edit, and review documents directly from their smartphones or tablets. Mobile access supports collaboration with colleagues and clients, allowing lawyers to review language, make revisions, and respond quickly, even while commuting or between meetings.
Built-in video conferencing and screen-sharing features make it easier to meet with clients virtually. These tools reduce travel time and costs while supporting timely communication, especially for clients located outside major urban centres.
Lawyers frequently rely on mobile devices in courtrooms and during negotiations. Mobile apps enable secure messaging, document sharing, and real-time updates, helping lawyers stay connected to clients and teams in high-pressure environments where timing and confidentiality matter.
Mobile apps can deliver alerts on breaking legal news, regulatory changes, and case developments. This ensures lawyers remain informed throughout the day and can respond quickly as new information emerges.
Advances in generative artificial intelligence have extended these capabilities even further. Legal AI is now available on mobile devices, combining the flexibility of mobility with advanced technology designed specifically for legal work.
Lawyers want the ability to use Legal AI seamlessly while working on the go, and the Lexis+ AI Mobile App was developed to meet that need. Available for both iOS and Android devices, it brings Legal AI directly to lawyers’ preferred mobile platforms, enabling them to work anytime and anywhere.
The app provides access to a suite of AI-powered capabilities, including:
Lexis+ AI supports conversational legal research, summarization, drafting, and document analysis within a single, end-to-end experience. All responses are grounded in the extensive LexisNexis collection of authoritative legal content, including case law, legislation, and secondary sources.
A single Lexis+ AI subscription provides access to these AI-powered tools without the need for additional add-ons, helping legal professionals work more efficiently wherever their day takes them.
