Abstract
Many people lack the resources to get legal assistance with their civil legal problems. These problems include serious issues such as those impacting housing, safety, access to healthcare, families. The current systems that seek to provide legal services to those who need but cannot afford them fall far short of the need. Because of this lack of legal services, most people are forced to represent themselves or they give up their rights without even going to court. Legal technology, especially artificial intelligence (AI), has revolutionized the practice of law. Technology typically is developed and used by those who can afford it. Embracing AI can help reduce the justice gap by driving down costs and increasing access to legal services. Failure to act preemptively will only serve to continue the gap in access to justice.
