Fifteen years ago, Attorney at Work (AAW) began publishing “one really good idea every day” for lawyers and legal professionals, sharing tips, lessons, how-to guidance, tech reviews, and insights on everything in between.
As we close out 2025, AAW revealed its top 20 posts of the year, spanning AI (#1 and #3), legal tech (#2, #5, #19), productivity and planning (#4, #6, #13), as well as widely read articles on mental health, social media, succession planning, and new business development for lawyers.
We relate in particular to the #1-ranked article, “5 Essential Questions Every Lawyer Should Ask Before Using AI Tools.” The article reinforces that the most trustworthy legal AI tools prioritize transparency while safeguarding confidentiality. The author also highlights the importance of customization and built-in validation, ensuring AI aligns with practice-specific needs and supports, rather than replaces, professional judgment.
We couldn’t agree more. When using AI for client work, our Solvaire Technologies ALSP team relies on tools that deliver transparency, leverage authoritative and current legal data, protect client confidentiality, and help streamline and automate workflows.
