A Message From the Editor

Good morning. We've been covering AI in the legal sector, and today we bring you two stories: one about an alliance between Garrigues and Microsoft designed to drive AI innovation and another that asks why Big Law is being so cautious about AI adoption. In Asia, we're looking at one of Singapore's largest firms, which has just launched in Indonesia. And The Global Lawyer examines the salary race for junior lawyers, asking how far will it go?
