Emerging technology is continuing to transform the legal sector, according to several attorneys at Mayer Brown who took part in a recent webinar. For instance, digital technologies will be expected to deliver services, Rebecca Eisner said.

“In 2016, cloud services will move from disruptive innovation to an accepted tool for core production functions,” Rebecca Eisner, partner-in-charge of Mayer Brown’s Chicago office, told Legaltech News. “Increasingly, legal service providers will offer cloud services as a standard, integrated part of their offerings. Clients will increasingly distinguish between secure and insecure cloud services and will demand cloud capabilities as part of law firm offerings. We will see increasing use of cognitive computing systems for reading documents, creating summaries, and identifying variances.”
