Garfield AI wins first court trial — landmark first for AI-assisted litigation globally

Garfield AI — the world's first SRA-regulated AI law firm — won its first court trial at Wandsworth County Court, marking a global landmark for AI-assisted litigation. AI handled all pre-trial document work (correspondence, claim forms, four witness statements, trial bundles). A human barrister provided oral advocacy only. Client paid ~£400 and recovered the full £7,000 disputed amount; opposing side had both solicitor and barrister and lost. Garfield has now started 600+ claims and recovered or resolved over £500,000 for users.
