Legal Intelligence Center

Legal Intelligence Center

Outstanding legal advice is driven by the expertise and judgment of our lawyers. Our Legal Intelligence Center supports this core strength by seamlessly integrating our institutional knowledge and the best available technology into their daily practice. Working closely with our practice groups, the IT team and specialists across the firm, we turn emerging needs and technological possibilities into trusted solutions that can be deployed at scale.

To achieve this, our work focuses on five core areas that reflect the continuous lifecycle of legal innovation: from identifying needs in our client work to the deployment and daily use of technology-enabled solutions.

Know-how captures and structures the knowledge generated through our client work and makes it available across the firm. It provides the essential legal context that increasingly determines how effectively technology and AI can support our lawyers.

Legal Engineering translates legal needs into technology-enabled solutions. Working hand in hand with our IT team, we identify, develop, and continuously improve the tools, workflows, and AI solutions used in our legal work.

Governance supports the responsible use of technology and AI. In close collaboration with our compliance and information security specialists, we incorporate relevant requirements into the selection, design and deployment of our solutions from the outset.

Legal Operations works alongside our lawyers in client matters, providing technology-enabled support tailored to each matter’s needs. This includes legal project management with HM Connect, document review using Harvey and our proprietary HM Argus solution, and the development of matter-specific AI workflows and agents. Our team combines hands-on matter support with technical expertise, making these services available at short notice.

Adoption ensures that new capabilities become a natural part of everyday legal practice. Through training and continuous exchange, we share use cases and experiences across the firm, ensuring that insights from our lawyers feed directly back into the refinement of our solutions.

Bringing together Legal Tech and institutional know-how reflects the next stage of our approach to innovation. As AI makes ever greater amounts of information accessible, the decisive question is increasingly how technology can be combined with the context, experience, and judgment of our legal teams.

By aligning technological capabilities with our institutional context, the Legal Intelligence Center, together with our IT team, ensures that our lawyers have the optimal setup to deliver exceptional legal advice.
