Is AI making lawyers lazy, or is refusing to use it putting firms at risk of being left behind? In this episode of Trial Lawyer View, host Jason Lazarus speaks with Holly Cope, Co-Founder and Head of Marketing at The Global AI Skills Community for Lawyers, about how artificial intelligence is reshaping the legal profession faster than most lawyers realize. Holly shares what she is seeing firsthand from law firms around the world, why fear and resistance are holding firms back, and what practical adoption actually looks like inside modern practices. This episode explores AI through the lens of operations, leadership, ethics, and long term firm viability. KEY TAKEAWAYS • “If you're not using A.I., it's crazy because it's literally the best way to work more efficiently.” • “You're actually at a disadvantage if you're not using it.” • “The law firms that are not using AI today are going to be replaced by the firms that are using it.” • “It doesn't mean that lawyers get replaced by AI. It means that you're going to get left behind.” • “I think A.I. has democratized the legal industry.” • “Resistance comes down to the culture of a law firm.” • “Allowing 20% of billable time to be used on AI experimentation incentivizes adoption.” • “Knowledge is everywhere.

In this episode of Trial Lawyer View, host Jason Lazarus welcomes Helen Pamely, a former law firm partner turned psychotherapist, executive coach, and founder of the LinkedIn Academy for Lawyers. Helen shares how she went from burnout in Big Law to becoming a voice for authenticity and balance in legal careers.
