‍Background‍

In a rapidly changing legal world, the ability to lead depends not only on professional expertise but also on the willingness to embrace breakthrough technologies and transform them into practical tools that genuinely serve our clients.

‍

Recently (February 2026), our partners – David Abadi (Founding Partner), Tal Kaufman (Partner, Wealth Management and Intergenerational Transfer), and Roni Weissblat (Partner, Labor and Employment) - returned from a prestigious international conference of the WLN (Warwick Legal Network) held in Dubai. The conference, dedicated entirely to the impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the legal profession, marked the beginning of a new era in the way legal services are delivered, measured, and valued.

‍

AI is not replacing the lawyer; it is a multiplier of value.

‍

One of the key insights from the intensive three-day conference is that AI is not a futuristic concept or a technological luxury, but a defining factor in today’s reality. The message our partners brought back is clear: AI does not replace lawyers; it empowers them.

‍

As Tal Kaufman noted following the conference, new technological tools – ranging from contract analysis and document review to legal drafting and workflow optimization – allow us to focus on what truly matters. Automation is not an end in itself, but a means to free up valuable time for strategic thinking, high-value advisory, and strengthening the personal connection and client experience.

Combining Expertise with Technology: The Formula for Success

‍

At ABADI & CO, we believe that the firms that will thrive and lead in the coming years are those that know how to integrate uncompromising legal expertise with smart technology. AI serves as a "Multiplier of expertise" for us. It enables more precise and faster work, but it will never replace the professional judgment, ethics, and deep business understanding that an experienced lawyer brings to the table.

‍

Roni Weissblat emphasized that the legal profession is facing a profound shift that requires a re-examination of long-held assumptions. Implementing AI requires leadership, ethical awareness, and data sensitivity. Boldness is not recklessness – it is the willingness to adapt thoughtfully, to experiment intelligently, and to lead the change rather than react to it.

Strengthening International Ties and Partnerships

‍

Alongside the expert panels and theoretical discussions, the Dubai conference served as a platform to strengthen the firm’s global network. Informal meetings, including shared experiences outside the conference halls, reinforced our working professional relationships. Reconnecting and deepening ties with colleagues from around the world continues to open new opportunities and bridges to global markets for our clients.

‍

At ABADI & CO, we operate as One Team connected to the real dynamics of the global market, providing our clients with the most comprehensive professional umbrella, both in Israel and abroad.

‍

Leading. Innovating. Committed.

‍

At ABADI & CO, we are committed to continuing to lead the technological front in the legal sector while maintaining the values that guide us: strategic partnership, professional excellence, and personal, eye-level service.

‍

The legal future is already here, and we are leveraging it to give you more, more precision, more strategy, and more value.
