We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
I am interested in understanding how AI is currently being adopted in the Indian legal profession, particularly from the perspective of practicing lawyers.
I would love to hear your experiences and opinions on a few questions:
1. AI Tool Adoption: Are you currently using AI tools in your legal practice? If yes, which tools do you use (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, SCC Online AI, Manupatra, CaseMine, etc.) and for what purposes?
2. Professional Background: Are you practising independently as a solo lawyer, working with a law firm, or associated with a chamber, legal organisation, or bar association?
3. Practical Limitations: What are the biggest drawbacks you have encountered while using these AI tools? For example, inaccurate case citations, hallucinations, lack of Indian legal context, poor document analysis, data privacy concerns, or anything else.
4. Unmet Needs: Are there specific tasks in your daily legal practice that existing AI tools fail to address effectively or that you wish could be automated?
5. Trust & Reliability: How much do you trust AI-generated legal research, drafting, and analysis? Do you use AI-generated outputs directly, or do you always independently verify them?
I am particularly interested in hearing from both lawyers who actively use AI and those who have chosen not to adopt it.
There is no right or wrong answer. Real-world experiences, criticisms, and suggestions would be extremely valuable.
Looking forward to hearing your perspectives. Thank you!
