Latham Litigation Head Sees AI Effects as a Leader and a Lawyer

Columnist David Lat discusses the evolving landscape of litigation with Michele Johnson, the global trial head at Latham & Watkins. Johnson provides insights into the firm's growth, the state of the litigation market, and the increasing demand for antitrust and artificial intelligence expertise. Latham's litigation department has expanded significantly under Johnson's leadership, reflecting a broader trend of rising litigation demand in Big Law.

Antitrust and AI have emerged as key priorities for Latham's litigation practice, with the firm handling high-profile cases in these areas. Johnson highlights the intersection of antitrust and AI as a particularly intriguing space, where companies leverage AI for pricing strategies, raising complex legal questions. While AI presents opportunities for efficiency and revenue growth in legal practice, it has yet to become an essential tool for day-to-day litigation tasks at Latham and other Big Law firms.
