The future lawyer: Technology, AI and what's next

Explore how AI and technology are reshaping legal work, future lawyer skills, and what firms will expect from the next generation.

Technology is reshaping the legal profession, creating new opportunities as well as new expectations for the next generation of lawyers. In this session, we'll explore how AI and other emerging technologies are changing the way legal work is carried out, the impact this is having on trainees and junior lawyers, and the skills firms are increasingly looking for in future recruits. We'll also discuss how students can use AI responsibly, build digital confidence and prepare for a legal career where technical knowledge, commercial awareness and human judgement will all be equally important.
