Toronto (Canada) – Fasken’s Emerging Technology and Venture Capital group is excited to announce our participation in Walter’s Joint Innovation Program to help shape the Walter AI Assistant, an AI-driven assistant designed to revolutionize the legal industry. The Walter AI Assistant, embedded directly into the Walter platform and Microsoft Outlook, will streamline entity creation, automate data entry, manage complex compliance workflows, automate document creation and quickly answer nuanced legal operations questions, all within existing tools.
Building on our successful partnership with Walter announced last year, this new collaboration aims to channel the efficiency and effectiveness of AI in law firm legal processes.
"By freeing us from repetitive tasks, the Walter AI Assistant will help us focus on the valued-added work our clients expect of us," said Constantinos Ragas, Partner and Co-Leader of the Emerging Technology Group at Fasken. "The legal industry is experiencing a paradigm shift with the advent of agentic AI capabilities. The Walter AI Assistant is more than just another piece of office software; it’s a game-changing tool that puts us at the forefront of this technological revolution."
As Fasken continues to support trailblazing startups, venture capital funds, and high-growth tech companies, the Walter AI Assistant will dramatically enhance our productivity and day-to-day satisfaction. By reducing administrative burdens, we can dedicate more time to strategic guidance and deeper client engagement.
