Is AI ready for Law Firms?

My firm's current AI policy is that AI cannot be used for anything client facing, though we do use it in other areas of our business such as marketing and so on.

Are we luddites or just sensible ?

Recently, yet another decent law firm and three solicitors have been referred to SRA after the Judge spoke of ''astonishing' AI failures.

For now at the very least, I will stick to doing the hard yards and stay away from AI that is client facing, thank you very much.

What do purveyors and proponents of AI think?

Comments on a postcard please!

An SRA qualified solicitor AND an FCA qualified protections advisor.

Last week’s HLN River Cruise was one for the books. 140 brilliant people, 25+ degrees of sunshine, and a sunset on the Thames... it doesn’t get much better than that.

A massive thank you to our headline sponsors Leap, NBR, and Penn Tech for helping bring this event to life, and to everyone who came aboard and made the evening so special. From the conversations and connections to the photos and laughter - the energy was incredible.

It’s clear the HLN spirit is very much alive and kicking. Humbled, and genuinely grateful.

Here's to growing stronger together — in business and beyond
