The Risks of Artificial Intelligence in Law

Publication date: Aug 2026

AI is reshaping the legal industry, transforming practices, and influencing behaviors of legal tech buyers and vendors alike. AI adoption also introduces complex risks that require careful consideration. The Risks of Artificial Intelligence in Law is devoted exclusively to the risks and challenges that AI presents to the legal profession.

Drawing upon the candid insights of legal professionals and technologists across 17 jurisdictions and six continents – including users and solutions providers throughout the legal ecosystem – the authors provide balanced, practitioner-grounded perspectives across the spectrum of risk. Bearing in mind the rapid pace of AI development, this book goes beyond the technological risks often discussed in general responsible AI debates (such as privacy, intellectual property, and reliability risks), to also analyze the operational and cultural risks faced by legal professionals.

For readers grappling with stalled pilots, disillusionment, or uncertainty, this book offers practical guidance to build literacy, manage risk, and make informed decisions in an evolving landscape.

Preparing Lawyers for Technology Transformation

The Exponential Age Mindset

Publication date: Mar 2026

The growth in technology is forecast to increase exponentially going forward. What this means for business is that technology will radically change the way we work, and that constant change will become the norm.

In law, this change has not taken effect as radically as in other areas of business, but it is a matter of when, not if. This book identifies nine mindset attributes that are fundamental to success – to individuals, their teams, and their organizations.

As AI adoption increases, there has been less focus on the human-centred skills that are needed to thrive. Preparing Lawyers for Technology Transformation: The Exponential Age Mindset focuses on how legal departments and law firms can ensure their employees have the mindset and the skill set to optimize this transformation. Increasingly, GCs are seeing that engaging the entire legal department is key to success, and that many non-lawyer roles are going to be even more central as tech and GenAI becomes more prevalent.
