Philip and Robert Hogarth Discuss Whether AI Will Force Lawyers to Raise Their Game
Join Philip Young, CEO and Co-Founder of Garfield AI, as he speaks with Robert Hogarth, former senior partner at RPC and now founder of Settle Index. Robert explains how Settle Index evolved from a lawyer-driven modelling tool into a system that can read pleadings, build decision-tree models, and generate settlement values with minimal human input.
Philip and Robert discuss why traditional financial modelling rarely happens in practice, how AI is enabling more rational settlement decisions, and what happens when the software is tested against real-world, previously settled cases.
They also explore recent AI policy changes, whether LLM-generated legal analysis can rival that of senior counsel, and how this technology may push lawyers to raise their game.
