AI Agents and the Widening Divide in Legal with Zach Abramowitz

AI Agents and the Widening Divide in Legal with Zach Abramowitz

As the legal profession enters 2026, the conversation about AI is shifting. It is no longer about awareness or early adoption. It is about measurable impact.

In this episode of AI and the Future of Law, Jen Leonard and Bridget McCormack are joined by Zach Abramowitz for a legal market check-in on AI agents, ROI, competitive pressure, and the widening divide between AI superusers and skeptics.

They discuss:

  • The shift from AI assistants to AI agents
  • Why 2026 is about measuring ROI, not experimentation
  • The rise of AI-first firms and competitive pressure on traditional models
  • Venture capital, private equity, and renewed conversations about external ownership
  • The growing mindset divide within the profession

AI is no longer a side experiment in legal. It is becoming embedded in strategy, pricing, and firm structure.
