The legal industry is undergoing a radical transformation. Traditional law firms, once seen as monolithic institutions, are now being unbundled into their core functions, each of which can be enhanced or even replaced by technology. This shift, commonly referred to as Law Firm 2.0, represents a reimagining of legal service delivery that is more efficient, cost-effective, and client-centered.

A key driver of Law Firm 2.0 is the evolving regulatory environment, which is shifting away from traditional restrictions on law firm ownership and profit-sharing. Historically, only lawyers could own and profit from law firms, limiting investment and innovation within the industry. However, new regulatory frameworks are emerging that allow non-lawyers, including investors and technology companies, to have a stake in legal enterprises.
