On 31 March 2022, the CCBE and the European Lawyers Foundation (ELF) presented their Guide on the use of AI by lawyers and law-firms in Europe.

The Guide is the final deliverable of the CCBE-ELF project called AI4Lawyers financed with the support of the Justice Programme of the European Union. The objective of the project was to provide a better understanding for lawyers and small and medium-sized law firms on how to use the opportunities provided by new technologies, such as conversational systems, which can open up new service channels to clients. The Guide will help lawyers to better understand the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other novel IT technologies in their daily practice. The guide’s approach is educational and provides practical information on what tools to use and how to use them. The Public presentation of the Guide gathered EU officials, Bars’ representatives, as well as lawyers. The event was also the opportunity to address the challenges posed by the digitalisation of justice, the digital transformation of law firms, and the use of AI in justice. 

For more information on the AI4Lawyers Project, please visit the ELF website dedicated to the project.
