The legal sector is undergoing a structural shift from document‑centric workflows to data‑centric intelligence. E‑discovery, litigation analytics, and case intelligence now depend on ingesting vast volumes of court opinions, dockets, regulatory filings, and secondary sources in near real time. This transformation requires robust, compliant, and scalable data pipelines—centered on web scraping and API consumption—to fuel law firm knowledge systems, litigation strategy tools, and legal AI models.
