Authense Law Office (Minato-ku, Tokyo) has recently welcomed a record 13 new lawyers from the 78th term, the highest number for the firm to date.
In recent years, the environment surrounding legal affairs has changed significantly, and the expanded use of generative AI and legal tech has created an even greater demand for improved operational efficiency and responsiveness. On the other hand, the roles required of lawyers, such as organizing issues, assessing risks, considering policies for problem-solving, making final judgments, and providing client-centric support, have become even more critical.
To adapt to these environmental changes, Authense Law Office believes that enhancing human-centric judgment, dialogue, and problem-solving abilities while utilizing technology is a crucial stance required of law firms in the future. The 13 new lawyers from the 78th term who have joined us this time are new talents who will support the realization of this vision.
Moving forward, to meet the growing needs primarily in corporate and real estate legal affairs, we will continue to improve the quality and speed of our operations through the utilization of generative AI and legal tech. At the same time, we will further refine the judgment, dialogue, and problem-solving skills that only lawyers can provide, aiming to offer even better legal services.
