Law Firms Are Investing in Legal AI. Associates Are Struggling to Use It.

New research from 124 law firm associates reveals what's working, what isn't, and what it will take to close the gap between AI investment and AI impact.

Not because the tools are wrong. Because the training, integration, and leadership structures to support them still don't exist at most firms — and the data makes a compelling case.

In this report, Litera partnered with Law.com to ask 124 junior, mid-level, and senior associates about their take on the current impact of AI on their work and their firm’s future.

What's Inside:

  • The training and coaching data law firm leaders need to see before their next AI deployment
  • How 61% of associates hear only an "efficiency" narrative about AI at their firm, why that's a retention risk, and what a fuller narrative looks like when AI droves growth and deeper client relationships, not just speed
  • A complete deep dive: 8 data dimensions, 6 key takeaways, and one next step per challenge
Explore the findings to learn how your firm compares and gather ideas to achieve return on your firm’s AI investment.
