Generative AI is reshaping almost every industry and the legal field is no different. A Thompson Reuters Institute study of legal professionals found \u201ca remarkable 79% of law firm respondents anticipate AI will have a high or transformational impact on their work within the next five years\u2014a significant 10-point increase from 2023.\u201d1<\/sup> There are many promising opportunities to streamline workflows and drive efficiency by bringing AI into legal and litigation workflows. Simultaneously, there\u2019s a need to ensure data compliance, security, governance, and privacy while deploying AI throughout your organization.  <\/p>\n
