AI is reshaping the legal world, but what does that really mean for law firms, lawyers, and clients?
In this episode of Shifting Views with Willis, I'm joined by Sam Thompson, a Lawyer and Partner at Gosschalks Solicitors in Hull, East Yorkshire, to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming the legal profession. From automating everyday legal processes to changing how lawyers train, think and deliver value.
We discuss:
How AI is automating legal tasks and freeing lawyers to focus on strategy, empathy and judgement.
Why law firms must evolve to stay competitive in an AI-driven world.
The ethical and regulatory challenges around AI-generated legal advice.
How clients are already using AI for contracts and legal documents, and what risks that brings.
The importance of training the next generation of lawyers to use AI effectively.
Why AI won’t replace lawyers, but those who use it will replace those who don’t.
Sam offers a candid view from inside one of the UK’s most respected regional law firms, reflecting on how traditional professions like law must adapt their culture, processes and people to stay relevant.
