SESSION: The Future of Law: AI, ODR & Legal Technology
The legal profession is experiencing one of the most significant transformations in its history with the rise of AI and legal technology. We are now hearing titles that barely existed a decade ago- legal engineer, neutral mediator, case manager, data researcher, legal technologist, and more. However, more than 90% of law students are still preparing for careers designed decades ago. Fewer than 10% understand how technology is reshaping the legal industry. For today’s law students, especially those in their first and second year, understanding these shifts is no longer optional. It is foundational. This session is not about replacing traditional law. It is about preparing you for possibilities the classroom doesn’t fully explore. Because the future of law will not only belong to the most informed. It will also belong to the most prepared! The future lawyer won’t just argue cases. They will design solutions to problems which are still emerging.
But this isn’t just another lecture. Expect rapid-fire, real stories from law school journeys (including the uncertainty, mistakes and confusion), and an honest discussion on how diverse the legal industry is. Join us for this free online session and start understanding the profession beyond the classroom. This is your chance to pause and ask:
What kind of lawyer do I want to become in a world that is constantly changing?
