With increasing digitalization and the evolution of artificial
intelligence, the legal profession is on the verge of being
transformed by technology (legal tech). This handbook examines
these developments and the changing legal landscape by providing
perspectives from multiple interested parties, including
practitioners, academics, and legal tech companies from different
legal systems. Scrutinizing the real implications posed by legal
tech, the book advocates for an unbiased, cautious approach for the
engagement of technology in legal practice. It also carefully
addresses the core question of how to balance fears of industry
takeover by technology with the potential for using legal tech to
expand services and create value for clients. Together, the
chapters develop a framework for analyzing the costs and benefits
of new technologies before they are implemented in legal practice.
This interdisciplinary collection features contributions from
lawyers, social scientists, institutional officials, technologists,
and current developers of e-law platforms and services.
