Thomson Reuters launches AI-powered CoCounsel Legal to streamline legal research and drafting.

Thomson Reuters has introduced the next generation of CoCounsel Legal, an AI-driven tool that integrates legal research, drafting, and verification into one workflow. Designed to assist legal professionals from research to first-draft briefs, it combines trusted Westlaw and Practical Law content with advanced AI reasoning and planning. The new features, including Westlaw Brief Builder and Workspaces, aim to improve efficiency and confidence in legal work by providing authoritative, citation-backed outputs. Available now in the U.S., the tool will expand to other countries later this year, marking a significant step in legal AI adoption.
