We are all aware of the emerging technologies such as Automation and Artificial Artificial (collaboratively we will say them as a "Robot" in these contexts). Yes, these technologies will take some people jobs, but the jobs that will be performed by the Robot are repetitive tasks that required less critical thinking. Robot are built from past data, these data are records from the activities that have been conducted by employees in different scenarios. Hence, the Robot is like a junior employee that only knows how to work around familiar everyday tasks, however, their knowledge is limited to troubleshoot out new accidents or "cases".

In the future, as the Robot is able to learn the patterns and able to troubleshoots problems as people, they will might fully replace the whole hierarchy of the organization from the operation level to the management level. However, that's when humanity has defeated and Robot have ruled humanity, which will never gonna happen.

Scenarios in the legal system, currently every legal firm need to complete few pro-bono (free) legal assistance services to the unfortunate public. Of course, this will affect the firm operation timing to focus on the high amount of legal cases that will benefit a fortune to the company if the case is won. In other words, this will reduce the seriousness of the firm on taking the pro-bono services and take them lightly which will lead to injustice from unseen pieces of evidence and so on.

And there come to the Robot duty in the legal system, they can assist with the pro-bono cases, because they are usually general cases. General cases usually have various past data for the Robot to learn from. However, the Robot is not like what we imagine with arms, legs and eyes. The Robot is a computer, hence, the lawyer can find evidence and communicate with the "client" and upload it to the Robot's system and the Robot will do the analysis and weight-judgements for the lawyers, which usually the time-consuming parts and the most critical task with zero tolerance of error. This is to say that, Robot can take general cases, do the "paper works" (which consume a lot of time) and the lawyer then can cross-check with his judgements.
