Abstract

The activity of subjects in the legal field requires knowledge of the requirements of public acts and their regular changes. Continuous development of the current legal framework requires the introduction of automation tools to support the legal activities of legal entities and individuals. Digital transformation of document management provides an opportunity to implement artificial intelligence methods for automatic batch processing of texts, in order to increase the speed of verification of legal documents for compliance with current laws and regulations. According to the results of the study, an analysis of the history of development of technologies for automating legal activities was carried out and key prospective information technologies were identified: automatic text processing, machine translation, data mining, data visualization. The classification of existing types of normative legal documents, methods of their analysis and approaches to the automation of legal activity, as well as existing information-analytical computer systems for legal support of document flow were proposed.
