This article can be read on its own. If you would like a more holistic perspective, you may wish to consider reading also Chapter 4 Legal Profession in an Age of Automation, Artificial Intelligence and Technology of my book Future of Work in an Age of Automation, Artificial Intelligence and Technology.
