🚨 58% of Legal Departments Expect #GenAI to Reduce Reliance on Outside Counsel and 25% Already Report Cost Savings, New Association of Corporate Counsel and Everlaw #Survey Reveals - Rapid adoption of GenAI is reshaping in-house legal careers; Training and upskilling are needed for a sea change in legal work. The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC), in partnership with Everlaw, published a new report today highlighting GenAI’s transformative impact in corporate legal departments. The report, “GenAI and Future Corporate Legal Work: How Ready Are In-house Teams?,” details the numerous ways GenAI is driving the rapid evolution of in-house legal departments, including economic and cost-cutting impacts, rapid adoption of the technology, and its career implications. Top findings on economic impact of GenAI: rapid shift over three years: ⚡ Nearly half (49%) of those surveyed expect reduced operational costs from AI. Year over year, 33% of respondents in the 2023 survey looked to technology/AI to control costs, leaping from 12% in the 2022 survey – a 4x increase in three years. ⚡ 25% of respondents already report cost savings on operational expenditures from using GenAI. ⚡ 58% of legal departments expect a reduced reliance on outside legal service providers, specifically due to GenAI. This has more than doubled since the 2023 survey where 25% of respondents said they would cut the number of law firms they work with in the next year, with the top reason cited by (79%) being to increase cost effectiveness. “The rapid pace of GenAI’s integration into corporate legal departments and the significant impact it is making is remarkable,” said Veta T. Richardson NACD.DC, ACC president & CEO. “The snapshot this comprehensive survey provides of GenAI’s use in legal departments helps illustrate the magnitude of its effect on budgets, operations, and staff.” “The expectation for in-house teams to cut costs with AI is becoming a reality, with over a quarter now reporting savings,” said Gloria Lee, Chief Legal Officer of Everlaw. “In just three years, AI technology's accelerating impact on corporate counsel has begun to reshape in-house legal functions, spurring a sea change across the legal industry.” Read more > https://lnkd.in/gW2FkdU7 #AI #Ediscovery #LegalTech
