Global legal practice Hogan Lovells and its legal technology brand ELTEMATE have launched an Artificial Intelligence (AI) application named ‘ELTEMATE CRAIG’. This AI chatbot is a tailor-made system designed for drafting legal documents, summarizing large sets of facts, and other related operations. Both the firm’s internal operations and its clients will avail the services of this new tool. Hogan Lovells has shared more details surrounding the recent launch.
The landscape for international law firms is significantly evolving. Poland, for example, is growing increasingly attractive as a destination for expanding law firms. Clyde & Co recently established a presence in Warsaw, and firms like Wolf Theiss are adding substantial teams from Polish firms. The market includes big names like White & Case, Clifford Chance, and Dentons. Law.com provides comprehensive coverage about this new legal scene.
On a less positive note, Salavatore Strazzullo, a Brooklyn-based lawyer known for representing celebrities, has reportedly been arraigned for allegedly embezzling $1.5 million from three clients. More information on this case can be found on the Brooklyn DA website.
