Goodwin also reported a successful firmwide rollout of Legora, while Lawfront selected Jylo as the key Artificial Intelligence platform for its group of regional leader law firms following an extensive review of use cases across practice areas.
Vendor alliances and product enhancements remain active.

NetDocuments expanded its engagement with UK firm Howes Percival, which will use the cloud-based document management system to advance workflow automation and collaboration as part of a broader business transformation strategy. BigHand introduced Resource Management Standard, a leaner, easier-to-implement version of its large law work allocation tool built specifically for mid-sized firms, based on feedback about features that resonate with mid-market attorneys.
New research and community activity frame the market context. BigHand’s pricing trends analysis, based on input from more than 800 legal finance professionals, identifies a widening gap between client expectations for pricing transparency and the expertise firms deliver, citing lagging commercial literacy, limited budgeting capability and uncertain Artificial Intelligence strategies as key contributors. The International Legal Technology Association released its 2025 Legal Technology Survey Results, reflecting input from 580 firms and over 152,000 attorneys for a broad view of technology adoption. LegalRM announced an information governance masterclass on October 2, 2025 at 4:00 p.m. GMT focused on cross-department collaboration. On the leadership front, Definely appointed legal tech veteran Jeroen Plink to its board and named board member Robel Chiappini as US general manager to lead regional expansion. Collectively, these moves underscore a sector balancing rapid Artificial Intelligence-driven change with operational tooling, governance guidance and leadership to support scale.
