Much Shelist launched a new Data and Technology Team.
The Story
The firm added five attorneys to staff this new initiative.
Why It Matters
Much Shelist is investing in internal tech competence, hiring five lawyers for a new Data and Technology Team. This shows a firm preparing to deliver legal services with data and AI at the core. For independent European law firms, this means clients will expect similar tech-informed advice and operational efficiency. Ignoring internal AI readiness puts your firm at a disadvantage for August 2026 EU AI Act enforcement.
