The Biglaw Firms Leading The Charge On Generative AI In Litigation - Above the Law

"As generative artificial intelligence continues to reshape the practice of law, firms are finding themselves at very different points on the adoption curve. Some have seamlessly integrated AI tools into their litigation practices - using them to streamline discovery, sharpen strategy, and even predict outcomes - while others are still struggling to understand what's possible, let along how to implement it responsibly."

"The divide is becoming increasingly apparent to in-house decision-makers, raising questions about whether technological sophistication is poised to become a new marker of competitive advantage in Biglaw. According to a new ranking produced by BTI Consulting Group, thanks to their superior knowledge, some firms are just more adept at handling the AI's ongoing creep than others into contracts, supply chains, data governance, IP, and beyond."

"Generative AI isn't just another tool in the litigator's kit - it's fast becoming a litmus test for the firms general counsel think are ready for the future. The firms that understand both the promise and pitfalls of AI aren't just keeping the pace with change, they're defining what the next era of litigation will look like. Congratulations to all of the Biglaw firms that made the cut for this important ranking."
