Legal help can be expensive, difficult to understand, and not equally available to everyone. At the same time, AI-driven legal tools are starting to reshape how legal services are offered. This raises an important question: can digital innovation make legal support more accessible and fairer, or might it create new risks and inequalities? This matters because access to justice is a key part of a democratic society. If new technologies can reduce barriers linked to cost, language, and geography, they could help more people understand and defend their rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>What are you actually doing to tackle it?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The project focuses on Sweden\u2019s leading family law firm and the first to introduce a consumer-facing \u2018Digital Lawyer\u2019. I study how this innovation is developed, regulated, and integrated into legal practice. My research combines interviews with lawyers, developers, managers, policy makers, and users, together with observations of workshops and meetings, and analysis of internal and regulatory documents. I am particularly interested in how AI changes professional roles, business models, legal expertise, and ideas of trust, ethics, and legitimacy in a traditionally conservative field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"3\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>What difference could this make?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This research can deepen our understanding of how AI can be used responsibly in legal services. It may offer practical guidance for law firms, technology developers, and policymakers on how to balance innovation with ethics, accountability, and public trust. In the longer term, it could help shape digital legal tools that not only improve efficiency but also support social justice and widen access to justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Camilla&#8217;s research explores whether GenAI can democratize access to justice by acting as a digital lawyer &#8211; available anytime, to anyone, for free.
