The Trends Shaping Knowledge in 2026 for Legal Teams

Our third annual Trends Shaping Knowledge e-book is now available, featuring insights from trusted experts across the legal industry.

While AI continues to reshape discovery, drafting, and client delivery, this year’s narrative is unmistakable: 2026 is no longer about the AI technology itself, it is about the quality, structure, and trustworthiness of the knowledge that underpins it.  

The e-book explores how knowledge is evolving from static precedents into dynamic collections, why trust and cognition are becoming central design concerns, and whether 2026 might finally be the year firms move from siloed systems to coherent knowledge ecosystems.
