I doubt more of their clients understand how it all works.

PE running a PI firm just sounds shady as shite.
It was already shady to start with!

How many PI clients even know what a Private Equity Firm" is?

I can see it working great for a firm like Dudley debosier. You have a few key face time partners who effectively franchise the rest of the firm out to PE. They handle the admin staff staffing agency for low level attorneys and the communications and real estate. For that the core partner pay 1/4 of the gross revenue.

Are you saying the associates using ai to communicate with clients are fricked?

What could go wrong? Except everything for everyday people. PE will be soon paying lobbyists to keep insurance prices up.

Regardless of merit, it gives the defense bar more work to do and makes the work more tedious. Cases are now being over litigated.
Then on the flip side you have debt collection attorneys who file short cases with just a statement as evidence and expect the defendants to not show up or file a response and receive a default judgment.

Where are you noobs coming from? Anybody who’s anybody has known these PI lawyers are pieces of shite for years.

I know these PI firms can be pretty regimented and strict, but I can only imagine what it's going to be like when PE takes over management. The weird part is that PI revenue has nothing to do with time-based billing and I just wonder how that's going to work managing employees who will almost certainly be paid via time-based payments.
As an associate, what's the point of working for the PI firm if you have other options, if you're going to be treated similar to/worse than a hourly-billing contemporary? Just seems like they'll be scraping the bottom of the barrel in terms of attorneys, but I guess that could be the plan. They'd save costs and those attorneys won't really be doing anything of note.

I don't understand the functional difference in an AI that is given certain parameters to settle a case and, say, an insurance defense attorney given the same parameters by an adjuster.
Hell, I don't do much PI but the few I have dealt with on normal PI cases 100% seemed to be just reading AI prompts

I’m saying that at some point (probably soon) associate hiring will drop off a cliff because AI is good enough to do everything as good or better than any fresh law grad could do.
People thinking law is safe because AI isn’t good enough to replace them today have their heads in the sand. We’re in the first or second inning of this.

PE getting involved in law is bad for everyone
PE getting involved in everything is bad for everyone. My business is in several sectors, and PE is ruining all of them. They're locusts, and I have no respect for any owner that sells to PE.
On the flip side, I have gained a good bit of business when competitors are bought by PE and they go to shite.

This is likely true, but moreso in certain fields.

The areas of law more likely to be gutted by AI in time are the more complicated ones at the top of the field. The lowest levels of law are the most insulated from AI.
On this note, something funny I saw the other day along this theme:
Galloway Johnson is doing fricking family law now
Which partner has been reading my posts on this the past few years? Out yourself.

We use some AI products that are tailed-made for plaintiffs’ PI firms, and they are absolutely putting out internal work product that is the quality of what a 4-5 year associate is doing.
We’re actually working on making sure our younger lawyers still get the exposure they need to learn the medicine like we all had to because AI is such a shortcut on it.
