Morning Update

A Message From the Editor

Good morning. Legal Week, ALM's annual legal tech conference, has begun. Fittingly, we have a story telling you how Am Law 100 law firms are using Gen AI. Also, it's law firm financial reporting season: Milbank's revenues and profits were up double digits last year. And in Asia, the Hong Kong courts took everyone (including China) by surprise when it ordered the troubled real estate company China Evergrande to liquidate.
