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).

OrdoLux is legal case management software built for UK solicitors, with AI tools integrated directly into the matter workspace.
