Company lawyers are increasingly adopting AI to automate routine tasks, saving time and reducing costs. Four legal operations leaders explain how they're using legal-tech to help lawyers work faster and smarter. At Dentsu, a global advertising group, the legal operations team uses LawVu to centralize legal requests and track thousands of contracts.
Lawyers also build custom AI tools, such as one from Harvey AI that flags conflicts of interest when pitching for new advertising business. About half of Dentsu lawyers save 4-8 hours weekly using AI, though decentralized tool development can lead to duplication and inconsistent practices. At IAG, an Australian insurer, legal operations leader Anna Golovsky applies AI to streamline compliance and contract management across the organization.
