The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in legal practice is transforming the legal profession by enhancing efficiency and accessibility while presenting significant ethical and regulatory challenges. AI applications such as predictive analytics, automated document drafting, and AI-driven legal research hold immense potential to reduce administrative burdens, streamline case management, and improve access to justice. However, issues such as algorithmic bias, lack of transparency, and data privacy concerns raise critical questions about fairness and accountability in AI-driven decision-making. This study aims to analyze the dual landscape of challenges and opportunities associated with AI adoption in legal practice, emphasizing the need for balanced regulatory frameworks. A systematic review of existing literature was conducted to identify the obstacles and benefits of AI integration. Key challenges include algorithmic biases, inadequate legal frameworks, and the digital divide among legal professionals, while opportunities range from cost reduction to improved dispute resolution processes. The findings contribute to ongoing discussions on AI governance by proposing actionable strategies such as fairness audits, explainable AI practices, and targeted training programs for legal professionals.
