LexisNexis Legal & Professional today announced the commercial preview launch in the United States of a comprehensive set of hundreds of AI workflows within its LexisNexis Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 AI assistant. The launch combines hundreds of pre-built litigation and transactional workflows with a custom workflow builder in what the company describes as an integrated, private, and secure legal AI workspace, all backed by LexisNexis\u2019s library of citable authority.<\/p>\n
The company says the new workflows are designed to enable customers to move beyond simple AI chat interfaces toward automated, multi-step workflows that can be customized and shared across legal teams. Unlike general-purpose AI tools, the company says, Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 workflows are grounded in LexisNexis\u2019s proprietary legal content and integrated with Shepard\u2019s Citations for U.S. users.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re focused on delivering easy, powerful workflow capabilities for legal customers wherever they work, and whether they prefer to start by using their own internal documents or trusted LexisNexis content,\u201d said Sean Fitzpatrick, CEO of LexisNexis North America, UK & Ireland. \u201cCustomers have asked us for legal workflow solutions they can trust that naturally integrate with their existing processes, and we\u2019re delivering that with Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 workflows.\u201d<\/p>\n
Although I was not able to schedule a pre-launch demonstration of the new feature, LexisNexis said the feature launches with several key components:<\/p>\n
Pre-built, configurable workflows<\/strong>: A library of hundreds of automated workflows that can be used as-is or tailored with firm-specific guidance. These include litigation workflows for tasks like drafting motions to dismiss, generating discovery and deposition documents, and identifying relevant cases by fact pattern; transactional workflows for contract drafting, redlining against internal playbooks, and risk assessment; and general legal AI workflows for tasks such as drafting client alerts, extracting timelines and transcribing audio.<\/p>\n Custom workflow builder<\/strong>: A no-code tool that allows legal professionals to design multi-step workflows for any legal task. Users can select their preferred AI model (the platform uses models from Anthropic and OpenAI), test workflows before publishing, and share them across teams. The builder aims to turn organizational knowledge and best practices into repeatable systems.<\/p>\n Later this year, LexisNexis said, it will expand the product with two additional categories of workflows:<\/p>\n Advanced practice-area workflows<\/strong>: Domain-specific workflows for areas including M&A, real estate, labor and employment, and civil litigation. These workflows will deploy what LexisNexis calls \u201cspecialized agents\u201d that understand matter types, risk patterns and drafting conventions. For example, the civil litigation workflow will analyze facts, extract timelines, identify party positioning and draft case-assessment memos in a single end-to-end workflow.<\/p>\n Expanded agentic and persona workflows<\/strong>: AI-powered workflows where the system functions autonomously as a \u201cskilled legal teammate\u201d capable of planning and executing complex workflows. Examples include a judicial workflow that drafts bench memos and opinions based on a judge\u2019s ruling and voice, and AI-guided research for complex legal matters. These workflows are designed to reason, learn, and evolve over time while allowing users to maintain oversight.<\/p>\n The commercial preview program is designed to gather feedback from law firms, corporate legal departments and other legal professionals. Later this year, Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 workflows will roll out more broadly. The pre-built workflows and workflow builder will launch across the U.S., Canada, U.K., Europe, and Asia Pacific markets, with advanced practice-area and additional agentic workflows expanding throughout the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" LexisNexis Legal & Professional today announced the commercial preview launch in the United States of a comprehensive set of hundreds of AI workflows within its LexisNexis Prot\u00e9g\u00e9 AI assistant.
