In our latest two‑part videocast episode, Simon Walker sits down with Alex Bazin, CTO & COO at Lewis Silkin, for a wide‑ranging conversation on how AI is really reshaping the legal sector – beyond the hype, and into day‑to‑day reality.
Across Parts 1 and 2, we explore:
- Why legal is now ahead of the curve on AI adoption
- How AI is changing workflows, not just outputs
- The truth about “prompt engineering” and why lawyers don’t want to be technologists
- What AI actually means for lawyers, partners and early careers talent
- How firms are rethinking client relationships, service models and value
- Where ethics, data governance and human judgement still matter most
- What the next decade could look like for law firms and adjacent services
Alex brings a rare perspective, combining law‑firm leadership with a doctorate in machine learning. He offers a grounded, glass‑half‑full view of how AI can unlock better work, better services and better outcomes, without losing what makes professional services human.
If you work in legal, tech, or anywhere those two worlds collide, this is a conversation worth watching in full.
