2024 was the year of experiments and pilots with legal tech. As we look ahead, 2025 is shaping up to be the year where use cases are actioned and AI goes mainstream. To help make sense of it all, we asked seven legal experts in our network for their thoughts on legal tech trends this year (download the full publication here). In today’s blog, I explore several predictions and insights raised in this white paper.
Paul Hogg from Herbert Smith Freehills explores the evolution of legal tech beyond efficiency, focusing on user experience and the consolidation of tech stacks. He suggests that firms will increasingly engage in comparative experimentation to assess the benefits of versatile AI-enabled tools.
Christian Matarese and Thor Alden from Dechert LLP address the vanishing legal task, where AI agents are poised to handle routine tasks, allowing lawyers to focus on judgment-based work. They discuss how this raises questions about ownership, credit and the role of human oversight in AI-driven processes.
David Hobbie from Goodwin Procter LLP highlights the challenges and opportunities of adopting generative AI in the legal industry. While lawyers are traditionally risk-averse, the language-based nature of AI prompts aligns well with their skills, offering potential for significant advancements in legal workflows.
