Legal innovation with AI
Legal professionals in all sectors are looking for ways AI will change the way they work. Eighty percent of professionals believe that AI will have a high or even transformative impact on their profession within five years, according to the Future of Professionals Report from Thomson Reuters. More than half believe their organization is already experiencing at least one type of benefit from AI adoption, giving them a head start in modernizing and transforming the way they operate.
If your legal department hasn’t yet adopted professional-grade AI, you might be considering how to integrate this technology into your workflow. Begin by conducting a comprehensive assessment of your current workflows to identify high-impact opportunities where technology can address operational bottlenecks and resource constraints. Then establish a strategic framework that includes stakeholder alignment, success metrics, and a phased adoption approach to ensure your AI initiative delivers measurable value.

CoCounsel is trusted by more than 2,000 corporate law departments, law firms, and government organizations. The system prioritizes security with NIST Cybersecurity & ISO 27001 standards, SOC 2 compliance, private servers, and zero data retention. The system is securely protected, ensuring that your data is never used for training AI models.
