Last week, I published 30 AI legal use cases. Here are 30 more AI use cases for legal, courtesy of Niki Black and Greg Siskind!

Earlier this year at ABA TECHSHOW, Niki and Greg presented “60 AI Use Cases in 60 Minutes.” They covered how lawyers can use generative AI, 🤖 both legal-specific and consumer tools like ChatGPT and Gemini, across different parts of their practice—from client intake to drafting to internal operations. These weren’t future predictions—they were real, specific use cases that firms can test now.

Then, over several LinkedIn posts, Niki shared those use cases – first sharing the ones she presented, then the ones that Greg presented (here, here, here, here, here and here). And she has allowed me to share them with you all here! So, here are 30 more AI use cases for legal, courtesy of Greg Siskind via Niki Black!
