The latest from Legora

Legora’s Head of Legal Emma Kadri Bergström, understands firsthand the overwhelm that can come from working in law, and was motivated to join Legora to help change that.

AI is reshaping legal work, with firms and in-house teams alike racing to adopt. But in law, trust is non-negotiable; lawyers can’t rely on systems they don’t fully understand or can’t fully control.

When you meet Maria Cortes Martins from Morais Leitão, you quickly realise two things: she was raised in a home where ideas were debated like sport, and she’s turned that early training into a steady, highly structured way of doing complex deals. Half-jokingly, she calls herself a “project manager who sometimes does a bit of law.” In her world, good lawyering is equal parts logic, people, and pace.

International law firm Trowers & Hamlins has begun rolling out Legora across its legal departments, following a successful pilot programme. The pilot brought together lawyers from across the firm to test Legora in live workflows, evaluating both its performance and its role within responsible AI adoption.

After an extensive selection process, MinterEllison, one of Australia's leading independent law firms, enhanced by specialist consulting, has taken a decisive step in its long tradition of innovation by rolling out Legora across the entire organisation. This firmwide adoption signals a commitment to embedding AI not as a peripheral tool, but as a core driver of how legal work is delivered.

Kyle Poe, VP of Legal Innovation & Strategy at Legora, has defined his career by leveraging technology to innovate both the practice and business of law. As Legora’s newest U.S. leader, Kyle reflects on the path that took him from a BigLaw partner managing mass tort cases to driving AI as the catalyst for the next reordering of the legal industry.
