East coast-based firm Arnold Bloch Leibler has entered an agreement with GenAI provider Harvey, making the firm’s next step in embracing innovation.
Last week, Arnold Bloch Leibler (ABL) unveiled its new AI-driven technology investment: an agreement with Harvey.
The agreement, the firm said in a statement, represents the next step in ABL’s ongoing commitment to embrace innovation, with a focus on emerging technologies to deliver exceptional legal services.
The firm’s agreement with Harvey follows a successful trial and co-development period that evaluated best-use cases to meet specific legal, business, and client needs.
ABL’s investment follows that of various other BigLaw firms in recent years, including A&O Shearman (then Allen & Overy), Gilbert + Tobin, PwC, and King & Wood Mallesons.
Speaking about the agreement, ABL managing partner Henry Lanzer said: “We are delighted to confirm this agreement with Harvey as part of our broader digital technology and innovation approach.
“The power of Harvey’s AI technology will further elevate our market-leading legal services and create more space for our lawyers to apply the critical thinking required to meet our clients’ diverse legal and commercial objectives.”
Harvey chief business officer John Haddock said: “Arnold Bloch Leibler has a reputation for high-quality advice and enduring relationships with their clients.
“Harvey is thrilled that a firm of ABL’s standing [has] entrusted us with their AI needs, and we look forward to working with ABL as we grow our presence in the Australian market.”
Harvey’s AI platform is designed to streamline and enhance legal workflows, enabling law firms to analyse vast document sets, automate routine tasks, and generate insights with unprecedented speed and accuracy.
