LexisNexis New Zealand

The boundaries of technology are advancing at an unprecedented rate, particularly in the realm of AI. The legal industry is on the cusp of a new, transformative era – and LexisNexis New Zealand will soon be launching the next evolution in legal research. With the launch of Lexis+, lawyers will be able to save hours (or even days) of their time, freeing them up to focus on anything from billable hours, networking or simply maintaining work-life balance. A recent study conducted in the UK among Lexis+ users revealed significant time savings for legal professionals. Over a week, with an average workday of 10 hours, users saved a total of 8 hours and 28 minutes. That’s over an hour a day in time gained back.

Transitioning from partner to barrister and embracing AI in law After fifteen years as a litigator and over a decade as a director and partner at boutique law firm SD Legal, Dushan Delic has bid farewell to his role as a solicitor. Driven by a desire for independence, autonomy, and a deeper focus on his areas of expertise, Delic has struck out on his own to become a barrister — a move he describes as providing a “unique sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.” However, a solo journey is not always an easy one, and Delic says there have already been plenty of challenges to navigate.

Read of the Month: "A spotlight on constructive dismissal claims" Written by Caroline (Caro) Rieger (Director), Grace Adeyinka (Solicitor), and with research undertaken by Amy Edwards (Law Clerk), Black Door Law for Employment Law Bulletin, No. 1 Issue 2024. Constructive dismissal is an often misunderstood concept in employment law. It is often misused to describe situations where an employee resigns or wishes to resign as a result of difficult circumstances in the workplace. However, constructive dismissal refers to a situation where, as a result of an employer’s action or inaction, an employee’s job or workplace becomes untenable, and they have no other option but to resign. Constructive dismissal claims are difficult to prove. The legal threshold for a constructive dismissal claim is significantly higher than other dismissal claims.
