Morgan & Morgan commits $1 billion to its own legal AI(forthepeople.com)
Morgan & Morgan, the plaintiff firm best known for its television advertising, has unveiled MX2, an AI platform it built in-house over several years, and pledged more than $1 billion in legal-technology spending over the coming decade. MX2 already runs at scale inside the firm, with close to 5,000 monthly users across four tools: a case-insight agent tied into its own case-management system, a document drafter, a medical-record extractor and a case-data search engine. The firm says it plans to offer MX2 to outside firms by invitation once the platform has proven itself further, with an external rollout targeted for late 2027.

ILTACON 2026 turns context into the product legal AI sells(legaltechnology.com)
The vendor announcements at ILTACON this year converged on one idea: the model is no longer the differentiator, and what a firm is actually buying is the layer that feeds the model its own matters, history and house rules. iManage, NetDocuments, Litera, Harvey and Aderant all pitched some version of that layer, and most of them are plumbing it with the same open protocol rather than private connectors, which makes the switching costs a real question for the first time. For a firm mid-way through a procurement, the practical read is that a demo of answer quality now tells you much less than a demo of what the system can see.

Harvey II ships with Memory that learns how you work(harvey.ai)
Harvey has released Harvey II, built around a Memory feature that retains an individual lawyer's drafting style, preferred structure, citation habits and level of detail, then carries those preferences across Harvey, Word, Outlook and its agents. Personal memory ships first, with shared spaces and eventually organisation-wide memory promised later. Harvey says a user can see what it remembers, change it or switch it off, and that memory is never used to train models, which is the part a risk committee will want in writing before this reaches a matter.

Eve opens EveOS to plaintiff firms with Analyst and Atlas(artificiallawyer.com)
Eve's operating system for plaintiff firms has come out of its staged rollout into general availability, and it arrives with two additions aimed at the parts of a contingency practice that are not legal work. Analyst answers questions about the firm itself, so a partner can ask for a report in plain English instead of commissioning one. Atlas assembles a live picture of each matter by reading the systems a case already generates, including filings, medical records and client correspondence, which is a direct attack on the manual data entry that plaintiff firms carry.

iManage puts a Context Fabric under its October platform(imanage.com)
iManage will ship its next-generation platform in October, built on what it calls a Context Fabric: a governed layer that enriches stored documents with the facts a model needs to place them, including jurisdiction, area of law and the parties involved, and links them to the practice management system. The detail that matters for outside counsel guidelines is that AI can be switched off for a named client or a single matter rather than firm-wide. iManage also opened its content to Thomson Reuters CoCounsel over an open protocol, so documents can be reached from a research tool without a bespoke integration.

LexisNexis rebuilds Protege around an agentic harness(lexisnexis.com)
LexisNexis has rebuilt Lexis+ with Protege around an orchestration layer it calls a harness, which picks the models, agents, skills and content sources for whatever the user describes and carries context from one step of a matter into the next. The company frames the carrying of context as the genuinely new part: exploration, research, analysis, drafting and review stop being separate sessions, and the output lands in Word, Excel or PowerPoint. For firms already on Lexis+, the renewal question is whether an orchestration layer they do not control is worth more than the point tools it absorbs.

Avvoka opens Curate, an AI template builder, in beta(artificiallawyer.com)
Avvoka has put Curate into beta with a set of AmLaw 100 and global firms, with general availability still to come. It reads a firm's past deal documents, surfaces the competing versions of each clause it finds, then lets a lawyer choose the wording and fallback positions to standardise on, producing a bracketed and footnoted Word template or a feed into another drafting system. It runs on OpenAI and Anthropic models and arrived in the same week as Avvoka's partnership with Harvey.
