“Looking to the future, I believe the next major disruptor in legal services will be autonomous legal agents – AI systems capable of carrying out multi-step legal reasoning tasks, not just extracting information or summarizing content, but coordinating actions across workflows with minimal human intervention. Think of them as digital associates that can analyze a dispute, identify key legal issues, draft discovery plans, or even simulate opposing arguments based on evolving facts.
This shift is bigger than incremental efficiency gains— it’s about transforming the very structure of how legal work is performed.”
