What offshore firms are doing (and not doing) about legal tech

#artificialintelligence

Last month The Lawyer published the first-ever Offshore Litigation Survey, which revealed the cases on which the top firms have been active as well as firms' bench strengths. As part of the survey we also asked offshore firms about their technology-related innovations and how they project manage their litigation matters. Offshore firms have introduced a number of products for general efficiency purposes and have taken a variety of investment approaches. Bedell Cristin has brought in INTAP technology for time recording, while Appleby operates an internal portal that houses high-level information from a variety of data sources and presents them in an intelligent format in a single point of view. Advances in technology over the past year "have resulted in significant improvements around litigation processes and within the teams that support those functions", says the firm. Conyers Dill & Pearman and Harneys both use Relativity for document management and disclosure purposes, while Conyers is piloting litigation-specific file management software.
