The majority of law firms are making increasing use of technology, although funding and scalability issues mean the development of bespoke tech is mainly aimed at helping large corporate clients, an Oxford University study into innovation in lawtech has found
The research, ‘Innovation and Technology in Legal Services’, commissioned by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA), found 87% of firms use video conferencing to meet clients while two-thirds store data in the cloud. 90% of firms intend to keep tech changes made during the pandemic.
Anna Bradley, SRA chair, said tech to improve access to justice is ‘already available’.
