AI document generation for estate planning attorneys: what's real and what's hype

AI document generation is the most hyped — and most misunderstood — technology in legal tech today. Here's a practical breakdown.

What AI does well

• Populating your existing templates with client data
• Organizing intake responses into structured matters
• Flagging missing information before drafting

What AI does not replace

Attorney judgment, clause selection for complex estates, and final review. The right platform preserves your firm's specific language rather than generating generic documents.
