Google Cloud has become one of Alphabet\u2019s fastest-growing businesses.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to legal, Google on Tuesday said it was unveiling industry tools for the financial services sector and would later roll out other industry-specific offerings.<\/p>\n<p>Rival AI companies including Anthropic have also expanded their enterprise offerings in recent months, including in the legal sector. A 2026 report on the legal industry\u2019s adoption of AI from Deloitte found that law firms are investing heavily in the technology as part of a transformation that\u2019s still in its early stages.<\/p>\n<p>Thomson Reuters, which owns Reuters and Westlaw\u2019s legal research database, is among the competitors for legal industry market share. On Monday it launched a proprietary large language model called Thomson 1.0 that is trained on its legal research content and built for professional work. It said the model is built on open-source technology and draws on decades of its own \u201cauthoritative\u201d legal content.<\/p>\n<p>Google said its platform will connect directly and securely to other legal technology platforms owned by Thomson Reuters, legal AI software developer Harvey, data analytics and technology company LexisNexis and others.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bzn bzn-sized bzn-intext-2\">\n<ins data-revive-zoneid=\"162\" data-revive-topics=\"ai,data-driven,insurtech\" data-revive-companies=\"google\" data-revive-block=\"1\" data-revive-id=\"36eb7c2bd3daa932a43cc2a8ffbed3a9\"><\/ins> <\/div>\n<p>Law firms are rapidly adopting generative AI tools that can assist with legal research, draft filings and perform other legal tasks. Many are also using AI for business operations like client and case management, seeking to cut costs and improve efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>Google\u2019s new offering is designed to be flexible for law firms, said Amrita Mehrok, a Google Cloud product director at the company, allowing them to choose among AI models embedded in the platform.<\/p>\n<p>Some large law firms have formed strategic partnerships with AI providers and in some instances are building their own AI platforms. Google said Weil Gotshal, Cleary Gottlieb, Freshfields and Williams &amp; Connolly are among a group of firms collaborating with it on Gemini Enterprise for Legal.<\/p>\n<p>Weil Gotshal\u2019s co-managing partner Jonathon Soler in an interview said clients increasingly expect their lawyers to be using AI and taking advantage of its efficiencies.<\/p>\n<p>Cleary Gottlieb managing partner Jeffrey Karpf said the firm\u2019s collaboration with Google would allow it to \u201cbe involved in the creation of useful tools for law firms deploying AI.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"tagtag\"> <span class=\"tagtag\">Topics<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insurancejournal.com\/insurtech\/\" class=\"btn btn-sm btn-primary tagtag\">InsurTech<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insurancejournal.com\/data-driven\/\" class=\"btn btn-sm btn-primary tagtag\">Data Driven<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insurancejournal.com\/ai\/\" class=\"btn btn-sm btn-primary tagtag\">Artificial Intelligence<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insurancejournal.com\/company\/google\/\" class=\"btn btn-sm btn-primary tagtag\">Google<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-poll\" data-post=\"882836\">\n<div class=\"article-poll-vote\">\n<p>Was this article valuable?<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"article-poll-feedback voted-no\">\n<form class=\"feedback-form\">\n<p>Thank you!
