Finance is another field lowering graduate intake (although more aggressively than law).I do worry though this trend is more than a correction. The benefit of commercial law, is companies will need advice both during economic boom and recession (which is part of the 'stability ' of the profession), however the demand for legal services is not extremely elastic. If AI does make the job more efficient, it may not replace lawyers as such, but it might reduce the hiring rate (as with any field), and I do wonder if the contraction is partly due to this implementation.Maybe I'm just worrying too much / too paranoid.</blockquote>
