AI for Lawyers - Insights and Tools for Your Practice

Artificial intelligence is already in use in many law practices, but many law professionals are still unsure how to use it safely, ethically, and effectively.

While AI offers new opportunities for legal services, there are risks and ethical issues that need careful management.

Staying informed and up-to-date on AI developments and issues is key.

Law Society partnering with LexisNexis to support legal professionals

The Law Society is partnering with LexisNexis to get a clear picture of how lawyers are using AI in New Zealand in 2025 and to provide meaningful support for AI adoption by the profession.

This is taking the form of a research project, webinar and a series of workshops on AI and the legal profession.

LexisNexis brings our global research insights and their experience as a leading law technology provider to the programme.

AI and the Legal Profession research survey

In March-April 2025 the Law Society, in partnership with LexisNexis, conducted a survey of law practitioners to get a snapshot of how AI is being perceived and used by lawyers in New Zealand.

This was the first survey of its kind to look solely at New Zealand practitioners.

The survey was anonymous. Respondents were representative of lawyers from across the profession in New Zealand.
