Florida Bar partners with Clio to offer members free access to legal AI tool

The Florida Bar has announced a partnership with legal technology company Clio to offer its members a no-cost trial period for Clio's legal AI assistant. This tool is designed to assist with tasks such as document review, contract analysis, and legal research, aiming to reduce time spent on routine administrative work so lawyers can focus on higher-value client matters.

The initiative allows Florida lawyers to evaluate how AI technology integrates into their specific practices before committing to paid subscriptions. While Clio's AI capabilities layer onto its existing practice management software, the specific terms and duration of the free access period have not yet been disclosed.

This move comes as state bar associations across the country navigate the ethical implications of artificial intelligence. While the Florida Bar has previously emphasized the duty of competence and the necessity of supervising AI-generated work, this partnership provides members with hands-on experience to bridge the gap between regulatory guidance and practical application.
