Law Firms Aren’t Ready for AI Agents

Agentic AI introduces a new risk profile for law firms. In this segment, Nikki Shaver explains why many legal organizations are still early in understanding AI agents, governance, security, and policy enforcement. She discusses how agentic AI changes the questions firms need to ask about autonomy, access, client restrictions, system permissions, and Model Context Protocol, or MCP. The conversation also looks ahead to what may come next in legal tech, including consolidation, agentic AI adoption, new integration layers, and the future of legal AI providers.
