Why this matters

Jones Day is building AI capability with partners, with Legora in the stack. This is a high-significance signal for buyers benchmarking their panel.

On 22 October 2026 Jones Day and Legora announced a strategic AI partnership: lawyers in all 40 offices will gain access to Legora over the coming months, and the firm will act as design partner for Legora's forthcoming ontological legal research product. They will also run a structured learning and development program with Prof. Dan Hunter (King's College London), including collaboration with clients. The announcement is a rollout plan, not evidence that every lawyer has access today, and it follows a structured evaluation and is framed alongside Jones Day's own systems and knowledge infrastructure.

""We already have extensive individual AI adoption across the Firm. We are continually exploring ways to combine the relationships, judgment and experience of our lawyers with advances in AI to deliver exceptional client service." — Giles Elliott, Global Chair of AI and Innovation, Jones Day"
