Canadian Lawyer Article

Having just attended the CALL Conference in Hamilton last week (Canadian Association of Law Libraries), I can report that there was a "lot" of formal and informal presentation and discussion about what will be the impact of AI (Artificial Intelligence) on the law library systems, on the legal system in general, on the Courts, and on the practice of law. Although there was no real consensus on what the changes brought on by AI will be, there was pretty much unanimous agreement that AI will impact all aspects of the legal system and the practice of law.

Canadian Lawyer just circulated an article titled "Lawyers Must Show Their Work" authored by Lavery’s new chief client officer, Jean-François Denis, that touches on many of the impacts AI will have on the practice of law. Lavery is among the leading independent law firms in Québec. With a team of over 200 professionals, the firm provides a comprehensive range of legal services to regional, national and multinational corporations, financial institutions, and government departments, agencies, and Crown corporations.
