M&A partner Ariel Deckelbaum shared his predictions on AI in Mergers & Acquisitions magazine’s 2025 M&A Outlook: AI, Real Estate and Professional Services report.

Ariel told Mergers & Acquisitions that AI will continue to affect the legal industry and M&A practice in 2025.

“Many large law firms, Ropes & Gray included, have devoted significant resources to the exploration, development and roll-out of nascent AI and legal-tech tools in recent years, which have shown increasing relevance to modern practice. The rapid improvements in generative AI tools – which can optimize M&A workstreams like diligence and contract analyses – have been remarkable over the past 12 months,” he said.
