Welcome to Red-Shift 2026: The North’s Legal Tech Conference
AI is changing the way law firms work - but the real story is more nuanced than the headlines.
At Red-Shift 2026, we’ll look at how firms are actually using AI right now, what’s driving adoption, and where it’s making a genuine difference.
It’s a day built to provide clarity - grounded insights, practical takeaways, and open discussion on what’s next for legal technology in the UK.
Why Attend
From headlines to hands-on reality
AI is no longer a distant concept - it’s part of daily legal work for many firms, though in very different ways. Some are experimenting, some are scaling, and others are still figuring out where it fits.
Red-Shift 2026 brings together the people doing the work - the firms, partners, and teams learning what AI can and can’t do in practice. The event is shaped around honest conversations about progress, barriers, and what firms can realistically expect in the years ahead.
A snapshot of where the sector stands
Ahead of this year’s event, we’ve partnered with YouGov to survey UK law firms on the state of AI in legal practice - from adoption levels and investment patterns to confidence in the technology itself.
The findings will be revealed at Red-Shift 2026 and used to anchor the day’s discussion -offering a clear, evidence-based picture of where the sector truly is, and where it’s heading next.
Real stories, Practical insight
You’ll hear from firms putting AI to use in real cases, learn what they’ve achieved, and what they’d do differently next time. There’ll be live demos, case walk-throughs, and sessions focused on tangible outcomes, not just theory.
