Unlike what you see in courtroom TV dramas, the legal profession is more about tedious tasks such as document review, and research and drafting, than it is about soaring, inspirational speeches in court. AI legal platforms such as Legora are seeking to lessen some of that tedium.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
