Quality has many dimensions. To your point (if I can extrapolate), "good enough" legal advice - delivered in time, at an affordable cost, and it a useable way - is 'good' quality.

Waiting for a hand-crafted, expensive, hard to understand, outcome from a more traditional legal service provider is not.

In Canada, between 50%-80% of family law litigants are self-represented. So clearly there is a problem today.

Generative AI, in a way, excels at doing legal stuff. Large sets of content as semi-structured data with some human training. Isn't that how we train lawyers in the first place?

Gen AI will clearly permit legal consumers to get the help that they are currently denied. And they will avail themselves of that with or without lawyer's help.
