Legal AI giant Harvey picks London to lead pro bono push

Legal artificial intelligence company Harvey has selected London as the base for a new pro bono offering aimed at assisting lawyers with pro bono work. The UK-headquartered firm is expanding its operations to tackle growing demand for its services across the UK, US and Australia. The initiative, available starting Tuesday to Harvey's customers, will provide law firms with tools to handle the high volume of free legal advice they offer in areas such as housing support, veterans services, and social welfare claims.

Harvey has collaborated with senior leaders from Ashurst Perkins Coie, DLA Piper, and Nelson Mullins to launch the program. In an interview with City AM, Harvey's Chief Operating Officer Katie Burke explained the company's choice of London, stating that "so many of our customers are either based there or global multinational firms are conducting a ton of business there," making it a logical choice.

Burke also emphasized that the pro bono initiative sets Harvey apart from competitors in the legal tech market, such as Legora and Clio, by highlighting its importance to customers on both business and personal levels.
