Artificial intelligence (AI) adoption among legal professionals is almost universal, according to global legal AI company Clio’s inaugural UK & Ireland legal insights report 2026
The report, published last week, found the issue for lawyers is not whether to adopt legal AI but how best to integrate it. Competitive advantage was now about workflow design, while fixed-fee billing has become the dominant pricing model.
Sarah Murphy, general manager, international at Clio, said: ‘For solo, small, and mid-sized firms across the UK and Ireland, the opportunity is significant. These firms are often the most agile when it comes to reshaping workflows.’
