Around the world the legal profession is undergoing a quiet revolution—one powered not by new laws, but by new tools. In a recent Forbes article, Bernard Marr spotlighted 15 generative AI tools that are transforming how lawyers work and among them, Lexis+ AI
stands out as a prime example of how traditional legal research platforms are evolving into intelligent legal assistants.
Lexis+ AI: More Than Just a Database
LexisNexis® has long been a cornerstone of legal research. With the introduction of Lexis+ AI in Canada, it’s no longer just a repository of case law, legal research and statutes—it’s become a partner, like a super legal assistant. Lawyers can interact with the platform using it to:
- Draft tailored legal documents and correspondence
- Summarize complex legal texts instantly
- Identify relevant case law and statutes
- Ensure citation accuracy
This isn’t just about convenience — it’s about precision, speed, and strategic advantage.
Why the Legal Industry Needs AI—Now
The urgency to adopt AI in legal practice isn’t just about keeping up with technology — it’s about meeting the demands of modern clients and caseloads. Your clients deserve a lawyer who can use AI to their benefit. Here’s why:
- Time Efficiency: AI can automate repetitive tasks like document review, contract analysis, and legal research—freeing up lawyers to focus on strategy and advocacy.
- Cost Reduction: Clients are increasingly cost-sensitive. AI tools help firms deliver high-quality work faster and more affordably.
- Access to Justice: Generative AI can democratize legal knowledge, making it easier for individuals and small businesses to understand their rights and obligations.
- Competitive Edge: Firms that embrace AI are better positioned to attract tech-savvy clients and top talent.
A More Positive Outlook
While some fear that AI might replace lawyers, the reality is more nuanced—and more hopeful. Tools like Lexis+ AI augment human expertise, not replace it. They allow lawyers to be more effective, responsive, and innovative. In fact, the firms that thrive in the coming years will likely be those that blend legal acumen with technological fluency.
