Innovation and Tech Ecosystems

How does digitalisation affect the legal sector?

The KPMG Spain report on technological innovation and digitalisation in the legal sector highlights some revealing findings:

– Only 12% of participants have evaluated digital maturity in their legal departments, making strategic planning for transformation difficult.

– More than 82% of the corporate lawyers consulted have a superficial knowledge of the LegalTech tools available and their functions.

– Approximately 17% of the organisations surveyed have implemented LegalTech solutions, with e-signature the most common; however, there is growing interest in contract management and workflow automation solutions.

– Widespread adoption of AI solutions, such as GenAI, seems distant for legal departments due to concerns about operability, costs and legal risk analysis associated with regional regulation.

– Unlike the picture in international surveys, the diversification of profiles in Latin American legal departments is still at an early stage: 97% of their members are exclusively lawyers.
