As the legal world works to make sense of the opportunities and challenges posed by recent breakthroughs in generative AI, many law firms are proceeding gingerly when it comes to putting this new technology into practice, instead looking to wring out more leverage from their existing tools by providing “refreshers” on the resources at attorneys’ current disposal.

Although some firms are looking to gain an edge on the competition and are looking at training aimed at newer technology, Estrada Legal Consulting principal and founder Edward Estrada noted that the larger trend at play is that law firms are returning to and refreshing the ways they use their current technology instead of adapting their training to new technology.
