AI startups reshape legal services in South Korea and Japan
SEOUL/TOKYO -- Hwang Sung-hyun, head of law firm Confidence in southern Seoul, can't say enough about how a new legal tech service has helped him save time and money. The senior attorney said SuperLawyer, developed by South Korean startup Law&Company, helps him analyze similar cases and draft legal documents to submit to courts.
"When you hire an associate lawyer, you should pay him 5 million won ($3,500) per month. But you can get the same, or even better service if you subscribe to SuperLawyer, which charges 100,000 won per month for basic services," Hwang said. "Moreover, you don't have to be stressed out by people."
