King & Wood Mallesons Australia (KWM) today announced its rollout of Harvey, a cutting-edge generative AI tool designed specifically for law firms and legal teams. This announcement marks the next significant step forward in KWM’s commitment to leveraging emerging technology to deliver exceptional legal services for clients. The rollout is just the beginning of broader plans to collaborate, with opportunities for client collaborations and co-development.
This announcement follows a comprehensive experiment involving around 200 lawyers across all practice groups which uncovered hundreds of successful use cases to automate and enhance legal workflows and tasks with Harvey to gain insights across vast document sets at scale.
“Our decision to partner with Harvey is the latest step in our digital transformation journey. Over the past 18 months, our people across Australia and Singapore have been experimenting with a number of generative AI products and learning about the responsible use of AI, its risks, opportunities and practical legal applications. The launch of Harvey presents a new opportunity to embed these skills and knowledge and take our AI capabilities to the next level.
We are excited about AI’s potential to enable us to deliver faster, smarter and higher value solutions to our clients, and we are looking forward to engaging with our clients and our people on how it will shape the future.” said Renae Lattey, Chief Executive Partner, KWM Australia.
Winston Weinberg, Co-Founder and CEO of Harvey, commented: “KWM did a truly incredible experiment with Harvey, with remarkable usage, engagement, and results. It’s a reflection of KWM’s leadership and strategy that they have made responsible AI usage such a pivotal part of their model moving forward, and we look forward to empowering KWM’s 1,200+ lawyers across Australia and Singapore to achieve new levels of innovation.”
