Legal AI for UK Solicitors: Guides & Workflows
A practical hub for UK solicitors exploring legal AI – from research and disclosure to time capture and billing.
Legal AI is moving fast. This page brings together OrdoLux content that is specifically written for UK solicitors, with an emphasis on practical workflows rather than hype.
Use this hub as your starting point when you are:
- Reviewing your firm’s approach to AI.
- Updating risk and compliance policies.
- Designing new workflows that mix human judgment with AI tools.
Core guides on legal AI
Below are some of the most important articles to read first:
- AI in legal research: precision without the “phantom cases”
- AI risk assessment for law firms
- Building a legal AI roadmap
- Regulators and legal AI: what you need to know
We’ll continue to add links here as new posts go live.
Workflows for UK solicitors
Future and existing posts in this hub look at how AI fits into the day-to-day work of a UK law firm, including:
- Drafting and reviewing documents.
- Email and note-taking workflows.
- Discovery, disclosure and due-diligence exercises.
- Matter management and client reporting.
You’ll also find pieces on using AI alongside case management tools such as OrdoLux to keep your outputs consistent and well-documented.
Risk, ethics and regulator expectations
AI in legal practice isn’t just a tooling question – it’s a regulatory one. This hub will collect articles that help you:
- Understand what the SRA, courts and clients expect.
- Build internal policies for safe AI use.
- Train your team to avoid common pitfalls (for example, relying on hallucinated case law).
How OrdoLux fits in
OrdoLux is designed to sit alongside – and sometimes in front of – your AI tools:
- Keeping time capture reliable when emails, documents and chats are partly AI-generated.
- Making sure you can always explain who did what, when, even in AI-heavy matters.
- Giving risk and compliance teams the audit trail they need.
