AI

In what ways has legal AI lived up to its promises – and what challenges and benefits have in-house teams and law firms been grappling with behind closed doors in the face of mounting pressure from internal stakeholders and clients?

To answer these questions, DISCO partnered with Ari Kaplan Advisors in to survey 113 legal professionals on the evolving impact of AI on the legal profession.

Today, we’re comparing this data against the results of our 2024 survey with the Cowen Group on the same topic to reveal year-over-year insights into the rapid rise and effects of AI on legal work.


In this report, we’ll share and analyze:

- Year-over-year updates to last year’s key takeaways

- Deep dives into the questions and topics shaping the new legal AI landscape

We hope the data provides you with insights and guideposts as you continue to navigate AI in the coming months.
