Navigating the AI Adoption Gap: Practical Insights for Scottish Law Firms
1 hour verifiable CPD | This webinar is free for Members
While 79% of legal professionals believe AI will transform the profession within five years, only 31% use it regularly – and just 19% work at firms with an AI strategy*. For Scottish law firms, especially small to medium-sized practices, this gap represents both a challenge and an opportunity.
Join us for a practical exploration of AI adoption in legal practice. Thomson Reuters will examine the real barriers to implementation – from disconnected point solutions to prompt-heavy interfaces – and explore how leading Scottish firms are overcoming them. We will answer questions such as: How do you move from AI ambition to adoption? And how can smaller firms compete with larger competitors through smart technology choices?
This session is ideal for managing partners, innovation leaders, practice heads, and solicitors interested in understanding how AI can create competitive advantage for Scottish law firms of all sizes.
