How does the Simulator of Legal Training supported by DLA Piper-Avocate Genai

Global legal firm Dla Piper is expanding the extent of his Genai-borne training program, which he describes as a ‘legal imitator of flight’-all human experts still play a major role. The artificial lawyer listens to everything about the initiative by the firm. See the in -depth interview of Al below.
Advanced negotiation and structuring Academy (Ansai) is the DLA flag, lawyer -led simulation program, created to ‘accelerate strategic, commercial and technological fluidity’, and ‘help lawyers become better and stronger’ negotiators’.
The initiative began last year in finance practice and has now expanded, with popular demand for firms, in employment and real estate teams.
And while the firm said this page: ‘As he shifts traditional small work flows, firms need new models to accelerate human ability in areas he will not copy: Leadership, ethical clarity, thinking with great photographs and creative negotiations. ‘
How it works
For six weeks, lawyers act as directors negotiating a sustainable Greenlandic fuel project of high interest. The scenario generated using Genai-Zht Participants in the complexity of the real world and the conflict of stakeholders. Speakers from the military, finance, academy and diplomacy are included, along with the addition of it and the structured mentoring.
During the hearings, lawyers act as key negotiators in a real -time infrastructure project with unique objectives, political tensions and trade risks. Crisage negotiator Suzanne Williams QPM and Professor Philip Bond, a UK government adviser in him, are included in the project.
This combination of the simulation, integration of he and the statements of cross-disciplinary leadership means that Ansa is ‘redefining legal training’, the firm said.
In -depth
Al heard from Fredrik LindblomDLA Piper’s finance practice partner in London, which has played a key role in Ansai.
Why do you do this, and why now?
The legal profession is facing a paradigm change. He is already taking on certain types of work – and this trend will only accelerate. Many firms are following the ‘fastest, better, cheaper’ path through automation. But what is left is perhaps more difficult and more valuable: the type of work that requires clarity, judgment, influence and ability to guide through ambiguity and pressure. These are the skills that customers continue to appreciate.
Ansa is to stand in front of that curve – not responding to it. We want our lawyers to be the best in the market in using it as an exoskeleton-a strategic improvement for high-level human skills. Not just using him to save time, but using it to think better, move faster and make clearer pressure under pressure.
At the same time, Ansai allows us to actively explore where he meets human thinking and, just as important, where he does not. We are training with the purpose and stress testing the skills we believe that it cannot replace, even in part: judgment, ethical reasoning, strategic impact and leadership. These will remain the foundation of the legal profession – and we aim to build the most difficult and smarter ones than ever before.
2 What are the main components of the training system?
Ansa is built as a six-week, 150-hour comprehensive experience. Combines:
- A direct (virtual) simulation with him, where lawyers act as directors in a complex agreement, multi -party
- Real time uncertainties, competitive objectives and displacement alliances-many of them dynamically formed by him (both participants, as well as faculties work dynamically with him while simulation progresses, as a direct part of training objectives, as well as to maintain and run tension, and training points)
- A 24/7, 3-day residence where lawyers operate under constant pressure, with face-to-face negotiations
- Strategic Mentoring by Partners and a Global Faculty of NATO leaders, Nobel Committee, Crisis Negotiations, Politics and AI and Infrastructure Investments
- The tools of it not as assistants, but as challenging-used to simulate complexity, surface risk and stress testing decision-making
Less is less like a course, more like a legal flight imitator.
3 Is this a model for training in other areas, as it will remove the work paid for young people?
As he moves traditional small work flows, firms need new models to accelerate human ability in the areas he will not repeat: leadership, ethical clarity, great photographs and creative negotiations.
Ansai gives us an escalating pattern to do exactly it. It will not replace all training-but sets a new landmark for how seriously we need to take the development of experimental skills integrated by it.
4 Do you think that legal firms will eventually have to train all lawyers like this?
Not necessarily all lawyers, but yes – firms that want to stay important will have to rethink how they build strategic skills with their people. Traditional legal training models were not designed or up -to -date to be important to a world where cars some perform basic thinking tasks.
In the long run, we think that training like Ansai will become a critical differentiating – how about how firms attract talent and how they offer strategic values to customers.

Is this a big job?
DLA is not the first organization to see the use of it to help in training lawyers, Dr. Megan MA in Stanford University Codex Group has explored how to use technology to create legal training simulators for some time. Meanwhile, some legal training companies are also expanding their use of it in their courses.
But what is important here is that this is a major legal firm that has captured nettle, such as, ie, while more and more routine work becomes automated, or partially automated, then what do you train new lawyers? The solution that many suggest is that young people will accelerate to higher value. But… ..Where do you train them to do more complex work? How does this happen?
In this case, DLA is seeking to answer this question and has built what can turn out to be only one of the many, many different training tools that he and human experts intertwine, that the legal sector will need in the years to come.
So kudos for those involved to move this forward. Anyone else happening with him, one thing is clear: if the taking of legal remedies goaling by Genai continues to the scale, then legal firms will have two choices – or reduce the number of new lawyers they hire, or seek to advance what they have employed at the level where they can address more complex issues that are not so easy to automate.
Of course, there is an interesting paradox here, which is that if you can use it to model and simulate more complex issues, then it is only a matter of time before those areas see important automation as well… ..But, the automation of complex negotiations is far away …… for now.
