In CTO we trust – LexisNexis

Chief Technology Officers at leading law firms face a new challenge: not just deploying AI, but proving it can be trusted at scale.

The legal profession is built on trust. So even the most advanced AI stack will mean very little if lawyers cannot verify and stand behind the outputs it produces.

For CTOs at leading law firms, the challenge is no longer whether to adopt AI, but how to make it trustworthy across the business. AI is now under scrutiny – from clients, regulators and internal stakeholders.

That means moving beyond experimentation and building systems, governance and workflows that can withstand challenge, explain outputs and support confident use in practice. The challenge for CTOs is not access to AI, but how to make it trusted, governed and scalable across the firm.

In CTO We Trust

In this report, we introduce a structured approach to building trust into legal AI:

  • Infrastructure trust
  • Technical trust
  • Workflow trust
  • Human trust

Together, these layers provide a foundation for moving from experimentation to something consistent, defensible and scalable.

AI adoption is widespread. Trust is not.

Download the report to explore why trustworthy AI depends on more than adoption and how CTOs can build the infrastructure, governance, workflows and culture needed to make legal AI work at scale.

Giving lawyers the legal intelligence and tools they need to help clients make better decisions, effectively and with less risk.
