LexisNexis Finds 94% of UK Lawyers Use AI but 83% Fear Inaccurate Output

On September 2, 2026, LexisNexis published a survey of 543 UK legal professionals finding that 94% use AI for legal work, 74% use it weekly and 34% use it daily. The same survey found that 83% worry about inaccurate or fabricated information, 77% believe AI is causing clients or the public to misinterpret the law, and only 29% say their organisations have embedded AI in strategy and operations. For law firms and legal departments, that gap indicates that access and informal use are advancing faster than governed deployment. Procurement teams should treat grounding, verification workflows, usage monitoring and client-facing explanations as adoption infrastructure rather than optional product features.
