Multinational law firm Pinsent Masons is set to implement the AI platform Legora across its 39 offices on four continents.
Pinsent Masons has formed a strategic partnership with Legora, the collaborative artificial intelligence (AI) platform, set to be deployed globally across its 39 offices in Africa, Australia, Asia, and Europe.
Following a successful pilot program across its corporate, commercial, and property teams, the multinational law firm plans to roll out the AI platform firmwide, after demonstrating its ability to streamline research, drafting, and document review.
Building on this initial phase, the firm has confirmed that Legora will now be deployed globally across these teams, with additional pilots planned for the remaining practice groups.
Once fully implemented, the system is expected to be used by approximately 1,000 lawyers, with the potential for further expansion as successful applications are identified.
In this partnership, Pinsent Masons and Legora will collaborate to accelerate the adoption of AI across legal workflows and develop innovative solutions that enhance the client experience.
The implementation will be supported by the firm’s AI Champions initiative, in which lawyers from associate to partner level are trained to guide colleagues in integrating AI into their day-to-day work.
Recognising the pressure on clients to demonstrate greater value through technology, Neil Green, director of transformation at Pinsent Masons, explained that this insight guided the partnership with Legora, helping the firm identify where AI could have the greatest impact and deliver meaningful results.
“We know that our clients are under pressure to demonstrate greater value through the use of technology, and this understanding provided the foundation for how we approached the Legora relationship, with a clear mandate to explore how it could make the greatest impact,” Green said.
“Our structured pilot was developed with colleagues in corporate, commercial and property and enabled us to rapidly pinpoint effective use cases. That clarity means our subsequent phased firmwide implementation will deliver meaningful results far more quickly.”
Clare Francis, head of the change and innovation board of Pinsent Masons, highlighted how the partnership with Legora is about more than adopting technology – it’s about empowering teams to harness AI confidently and creatively to deliver smarter, faster, and more meaningful results for clients.
“This partnership shows that our focus isn’t on simply adopting technology, but on equipping our people to work confidently and creatively with it,” Francis said.
“By collaborating closely with Legora, we’re bringing together the best of human expertise and advanced AI, co-developing tools and approaches that enhance our capabilities and empower our teams.
“The pilot has allowed us to explore how this technology can complement our lawyers’ skills, helping us deliver smarter, faster and more meaningful outcomes for clients.”
