Claude for legal teams
Practice better judgment with Claude
Claude’s ready-to-use artifacts are built for legal work, from scanning regulatory change to reviewing contracts to tracking renewals.
“Claude Fable 5 feels materially different. In blind review, our lawyers found its redlines matched or beat our current model every time.”
“Legal sits at the center of every agreement, but too often the work is disconnected from the rest of the business. With Anthropic, we're bringing the power of the Docusign platform directly into Claude, enabling legal and cross-functional stakeholders to create, review, and move agreements forward using natural language.”
“Our approach in the Freshfields Lab has always been to build on the best available technology. Claude’s capabilities have become an essential part of our proprietary AI-powered solutions. With this collaboration, we are going further: co-developing agentic workflows with Anthropic that can handle multi-step legal tasks end-to-end. For our clients, that translates into faster, more precise and more scalable legal services.”
“My legal team at Accenture put Claude to work on everyday legal matters, and we have been very excited to see how productivity gains could be realized.”
“The future of AI won’t be defined by where the work happens, it will be defined by whether the results can be trusted. In professional settings, that means AI grounded in authoritative content, validated for accuracy, and built with security at its core. That is the next frontier of trusted AI, and it’s where Thomson Reuters is leading through our work with Anthropic.”

“I built our litigation platform on Claude with virtually no coding background — I needed it for a real trial. The breakthrough was treating Claude like a member of the case team: onboard it with chronology, key excerpts, and themes the way you'd onboard a partner joining mid-case. The work product is far beyond what I would've done on my own — probably ever.”
“Legal is one of the most compelling industries for AI transformation, which is why we're excited to deepen our partnership with Anthropic. Claude Opus 4.7 scored 90.9% on Harvey's BigLaw Bench, the highest of any Claude model, and the Harvey for Claude Connector brings our legal intelligence directly into Claude.”
“Opus 4.7 is a step forward in reasoning for complex legal work — stronger consistency across long documents, better handling of nuanced instructions, and improved reliability in high-stakes workflows. Anthropic builds the underlying intelligence; Legora turns it into production-ready systems, embedding Claude into the workflows, safeguards, and interfaces lawyers can trust in practice. That combination is what drives real impact for legal professionals.”
“At Holland & Knight, we appreciate that Everlaw is working with Anthropic and offering access to their tool through an MCP. We are applying Claude’s capabilities across many litigation workflows and see significant potential in realizing them in the right context. Everlaw allows us to bring the right evidence into the equation, unlocking additional power.”
“PI law presents some of the toughest challenges for AI: reasoning across large volumes of medical records and billing data, identifying critical facts, and executing complex workflows with consistency and accuracy. Claude Opus 4.8 delivers a new level of reasoning, reliability, and long-context performance. EvenUp adds proprietary PI data, domain expertise, and purpose-built workflows on top.”
“At Solve Intelligence, we benchmark every frontier model on the hardest parts of patent work: multi-step reasoning over long technical documents, chemical structure recognition, and complex diagram interpretation. Claude Opus 4.7 is a clear step up — and it's how we keep raising the bar across drafting, prosecution, search, and litigation-grade claim charting.”
“We evaluate every model against 24+ legal-specific scorers — citation accuracy, ungrounded case quotes, memory leakage, refusal correctness — because in litigation, an authoritative-sounding hallucination is worse than no answer. Claude wins our internal bake-offs every time on the metrics that matter for legal work, particularly grounding and citation faithfulness. That's why the highest-stakes parts of our pipeline run on Anthropic.”
Shaped with legal teams
Designed with input from in-house teams, law firms, and legal tech partners to make working simpler through legal artifactsArtifactsLegal artifacts are ready-made templates you can edit to make yours., or tune Claude to your industry through pluginsPluginsLegal plugins combine tools, skills, and integrations to tune Claude to your industry.. Edit and steer any time, and drop in your playbooks and guidelines so Claude knows your organization and preferences on day one.
Works where you do
Claude works inside Word and Outlook, where your team already drafts and negotiates. Review counterparty paper against your playbook with tracked changes, without leaving the document.
Connects to your sources
Skip the re-explaining, copy-pasting, and tab-switching. Claude connects to the tools your team already uses—from iManage and NetDocuments to Ironclad and Bloomberg Law.
Built for privileged work
On Team and Enterprise plans, Anthropic doesn’t train on your content by default, and Enterprise admins set how long it’s retained. A lawyer stays in charge of the work and judgment. Read our guidance on privilege and confidentiality.
Teams use legal artifacts, our new ready-to-use tools, across daily tasks. Ask Claude to tailor them, and add your own data and connectors to make them yours.
See all your agreements in a tabular review
Attach a set of agreements and Claude lays them out with one row per agreement and questions worth asking across the top. Every answer links to the exact passage it came from, risky ones are flagged, and a new column asks another question about every agreement.
Track what’s coming and when
Describe what your company does and where it operates. Claude places upcoming laws and regulations on a timeline grouped by topic, scores each for its impact on your business, and links every development to its official source.
Give every Legal question one front door
Add your approved guidance and who covers what. Colleagues ask in plain words, routine questions get an answer straight away, and everything else reaches the right lawyer with a status you can track: on time, at risk, late, or waiting on the requester.
Compare the law across jurisdictions
Name a question and the countries or states that matter. Claude answers it for each one in a single table, marks where the answer is yes, no, or conditional, and links every cell to the law it relies on.
Check contracts against your playbook
Attach your playbook and contracts to check. Each clause is marked standard, fallback, deviation, or missing, with quoted wording beside your position, and anything that needs sign-off goes to the right approver.
View each open matter and next steps
Bring your matter list and recent activity. Claude sorts each matter by stage, names its next step, and flags hearings, limitation dates, and offers about to run out.
Embed Claude into your legal platform or product through the API and Agent SDK.
Connectors for your legal data
Bring your contract systems, document repositories, and matter data into Claude through the open Model Context Protocol (MCP).
Models built for legal reasoning
Claude is tested on contract review, citation accuracy, and long-document comprehension and its models meet high legal benchmarks.
Configured for sensitive data
Run Claude in sandboxed containers, with network controls, credential isolation, and audit logging built into the SDK.
Claude for Microsoft 365
Word is where legal work gets done. Claude handles full redlining with tracked changes, document comparison, and MSA-scale review without leaving the doc. It pulls in pleadings, prior versions, and Outlook context, drafts the next turn for your review, and tracks every change for the audit trail.
Legal plugins
Add practice-area plugins for contract review, NDA triage, compliance workflows, and more, all configurable to your organization’s playbook and risk tolerances.
Platform
Bring Claude into your contract lifecycle management, matter management, or e-discovery systems through the API or Agent SDK.
