Frequently Asked Questions

How are lawyers and solicitors using AI in 2026?+
Lawyers and solicitors are using AI for contract review, document drafting, legal research, due diligence, conveyancing, client communication, and billing. Tools like Harvey, Kira Systems, Clio, and ChatGPT are the most widely adopted across UK and US law firms.
Is AI use by solicitors compliant with SRA regulations?+
The SRA does not prohibit AI use but requires solicitors to maintain competence, supervise AI output, and ensure client confidentiality. Solicitors must review all AI-generated work before relying on it, disclose AI use where appropriate, and never input confidential client data into unsecured public AI tools.
What is the best AI tool for legal document review?+
For large-scale document review, Kira Systems and Luminance are purpose-built for legal due diligence. For contract review and drafting, Harvey and Spellbook are leading options. For general legal research and drafting, ChatGPT and Claude are the most versatile and cost-effective starting points.
How much time can AI save a solicitor per week?+
Solicitors using AI across 5–6 workflows typically save 6–9 hours per week. Those using AI across all 16 workflows in the Agent Almanac Solicitor Playbook report saving 10–14 hours per week on document review, drafting, research, and client communication.
Can AI be used for conveyancing in the UK?+
Yes. AI is increasingly used in UK conveyancing for title report drafting, searches analysis, standard form completion, client update emails, and completion statement preparation. However, solicitors must maintain professional oversight and cannot delegate legal judgment to AI systems.
