Singapore Big Four law firm WongPartnership says it has become the first in Southeast Asia to partner with Harvey, a legal artificial intelligence platform, to implement its generative AI solutions.

WongPartnership announced it will test Harvey’s generative AI solutions across different business units in a phased approach. The initiative aims to streamline operations and legal processes to improve productivity.

The firmā€™s legal technology team, part of its Knowledge, Innovation & Technology department, will oversee the implementation.

“Integrating generative AI technology is a key investment to strengthen our capabilities for our clients and further optimise our practice,” said Ng Wai King, chairman and managing partner of WongPartnership, in a statement.

This move reflects a growing trend of law firms and corporate legal departments in Asia embracing AI to enhance efficiency and service delivery.
