9 AI Trends Set to Reimagine the Legal Landscape in 2025
In my 15 years of lawyering—first in traditional law firms and later across various industries as in-house counsel—one problem has remained stubbornly familiar: contract management can feel like chasing after scattered puzzle pieces. I’ve seen time lost sifting through old folders, wrangling with cluttered Google and OneDrives, rummaging through colleagues’ email archives, and even digging through old USB sticks.
