Burges Salmon Expands Its AI Partnership With Wexler

Burges Salmon has extended its firm-wide deal with Wexler, an AI fact intelligence platform, to support document-heavy legal work across all practice areas.

The expansion marks a shift in how UK law firms are adopting AI tools built for specific legal tasks. Rather than general-purpose AI, firms are turning to platforms designed to handle the factual complexity of litigation and disputes.

Partnership Growth

Burges Salmon first adopted Wexler in 2024, starting with its Dispute Resolution team. After a successful integration, the firm rolled out the platform across all its practice areas.

The platform now supports fact extraction, chronology production, and early case assessment. These are tasks that previously required significant manual review time from lawyers.

What Wexler Does

Wexler is an AI-native platform built to process large volumes of unstructured documents. It extracts sourced and cited facts from document sets, helping legal teams identify where evidence may conflict.

The platform can process up to 250,000 documents per upload. It automates intelligence gathering in complex disputes, allowing lawyers to spend more time on strategy and case analysis.

Wexler also helps lawyers find vulnerabilities in discovery and draft documents to build case strategy. Its focus is on reducing manual review while ensuring critical information is not missed.

Tom Whittaker, Director and Head of AI (Advisory) at Burges Salmon, said: "Wexler has become a reliable option for how our teams approach document-heavy work. It allows us to engage with the evidential record more efficiently and focus on the facts that matter earlier in a case."

Gregory Mostyn, CEO of Wexler, said: "Burges Salmon has been a fantastic partner since we first started working together. It has been a pleasure to develop how the platform is used in practice alongside their teams, and we look forward to deepening our working relationship."

Wexler's Market Position

Wexler has been adopted by major global law firms, including Clifford Chance, Addleshaw Goddard, and HSF Kramer. The company raised $5.3 million in seed funding in 2025.

Its investors include Pear VC, Seedcamp, The LegalTech Fund, and Myriad Venture Partners. The company says it is adding new customers every week.

The Burges Salmon extension also aligns with the firm's Digital Enablement Programme (DEP), a multi-year initiative to modernise how it delivers legal services. The DEP reflects the firm's broader strategy of deploying purpose-built AI for complex legal work.
