Harvey, the leading AI platform for the legal and professional services industry, today announced the expansion of its Law Schools Program to Australia, partnering with two of the country’s leading institutions, the University of Sydney Law School and the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) Faculty of Law. The launch marks a significant milestone in Harvey’s growing investment in Australia and the broader Asia-Pacific region, including the establishment of its regional office in Sydney and the onboarding of a dedicated local team to support customers and academic partners. The Law Schools Program will be available to these participating Australian institutions from the start of the academic term in February.
Through these partnerships, students and faculty at the University of Sydney and UTS will receive access to Harvey’s platform, enabling them to engage directly with advanced legal AI tools as part of their education and training for professional practice. The program is designed to help students build the practical skills, professional judgment, and ethical awareness required when leveraging AI for modern legal practice.
“Partnering with Harvey allows us to further integrate the discerning and responsible use of AI into our curriculum, so students can meaningfully engage with legal use cases while also developing critical judgment about AI’s limitations. By familiarising students with Harvey in an educational context, and ensuring equitable student access to this system, we are helping them build the capabilities they will need to use legal technology thoughtfully, ethically, and in service of high-quality legal practice. After all, as a law school, we have a responsibility to prepare students not just for today’s legal practice, but for the profession they will want to lead in the future.”
Professor Fleur Johns
Professor of Public Law and Head of School at the University of Sydney Law School
“Our partnership with Harvey underscores our commitment to preparing future legal professionals for a rapidly evolving technological landscape. As legal educators, we have a responsibility to ensure our students not only understand the opportunities and limitations of generative AI in legal practice but also develop the skills to use these tools ethically and effectively. By providing access to advanced platforms like Harvey, we can equip our students with the confidence and competence to lead in the responsible integration of technology within the profession.”
Professor Tracey Booth
Acting Dean of UTS Law
“AI is reshaping the legal industry and so it is essential for law students to have early, meaningful access to advanced legal AI so that they can learn to apply it thoughtfully, ethically, and effectively as part of their professional development. We’re excited that University of Sydney and UTS will become the first Australian partners in the Harvey Law Schools Program in Australia, joining dozens of other leading global institutions at the forefront of educating future legal leaders on advanced legal AI.”
