Traditionally law firms aren’t quick enough to adopt the latest technology and solutions. However, the legal technology space has come a long way and can be used to adapt a law firm to the modern challenges of practicing in a post-pandemic world and delivering better, and more comprehensive services to clients.

To start with, documentation automation solutions have already become a part of the industry with a huge rate of adoption. Document automation technology enables legal professionals to boost efficiencies by automating process-driven tasks and documents. Online disputation resolution, as well as case tracking techniques, are also creating an impact in the industry. Participating in online dispute resolution only makes that process faster for both the legal firms as well as for the clients. Online dispute resolution can be the use of web-based technology to conduct dispute resolution.

More such innovative solutions are being introduced to the legal technology space. More than just being resistant to innovation, the legal tech space is filled with numerous solutions, creating a huge space of ambiguity.
