The rapid evolution of generative AI (GenAI) is transforming the legal landscape, necessitating a nuanced understanding of its implications for Information Governance (IG) within law firms. As GenAI tools become more integrated into legal practices, firms must navigate ethical, regulatory, and practical considerations to maintain compliance and client trust. Education and awareness are crucial, with law schools and firms updating curricula and training programs to include GenAI-related learning objectives.
