The Effectiveness of AI in Tax Research with Travis Thompson | Sideman & Bancroft LLP

“Blue J gives younger attorneys and associates the chance to spend more time on analysis, more time creating better work product. It's going to improve your employees' work-life balance because they're not spending hours upon hours on tax research. Instead, they can spend more time being mentored by partners and senior leaders.”
