Mishcon de Reya has announced a strategic partnership with Legora (formerly Leya), a provider of generative AI solutions for the legal sector.
This collaboration, facilitated by MDR Lab, will explore the integration of Legora's AI capabilities into Mishcon’s workflows, driving improvements in efficiency, client service and firmwide AI adoption.
This pilot program will allow Mishcon de Reya to evaluate and take advantage of Legora's AI tools, enabling its people to explore and deploy AI in more impactful ways. By combining usage of Mishcon's proprietary deReyAI system with Legora's platform, Mishcon de Reya is accelerating its AI integration and ensuring access to the most effective tools that are tailor-made for specific needs.
The pilot program will focus on integrating Legora's AI solutions into Mishcon's operations, including:
- Optimising legal workflows by transitioning users from deReyAI to Legora where appropriate
- Enhancing efficiency and client service
- Identifying and exploring future AI applications
The pilot will be conducted in two phases: Phase 1 will concentrate on optimisation of existing workflows, while Phase 2 will delve into new opportunities, for example litigation-specific workflows. The programme will rigorously measure the impact of AI implementation, tracking efficiency and efficacy gains.
Legora's team is currently working in a dedicated workspace at Mishcon's offices, collaborating closely with fee earners from across its departments and business operations teams, to help streamline the AI integration.
Max Junestrand, CEO of Legora, commented: “Legora is thrilled to partner with Mishcon de Reya to spearhead the next generation of AI-powered legal solutions. Our collaborative partnership perfectly aligns with that mission. By working closely with MDR’s teams to combine the leading AI-powered workspace with Mishcon’s market-leading legal expertise, we are not only co-developing AI tools for immediate impact but also laying the foundation for a long-term transformation of how AI supports legal professionals.”
Dan Sinclair, Head of Early-Stage Strategy, MDR Lab, commented: "At Mishcon de Reya, we’re constantly evolving our AI capabilities to better support our lawyers and elevate client service. Partnering with Legora allows us to integrate best-in-class AI solutions while upholding our commitment to innovation and legal excellence. This pilot represents the next significant step in our AI journey, expanding our capabilities beyond our internal development."
