The legal services market size has grown steadily in recent years. It will grow from $819.91 billion in 2025 to $848.37 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 3.5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing volume of legal disputes, expansion of corporate legal compliance requirements, growth in business formation activities, rising demand for litigation services, increased regulatory complexity.

The legal services market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1052.27 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of legal technology platforms, rising focus on access to justice solutions, growing demand for cross-border legal advisory, expansion of digital dispute resolution mechanisms, increasing use of automation in legal workflows. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of online legal service platforms, rising use of ai-based legal research tools, growing demand for subscription-based legal services, expansion of virtual court and e-filing solutions, enhanced focus on cost-transparent legal services.

The rise in cybercrime cases is expected to drive the growth of the business-to-business (B2B) legal services market in the coming years. Cybercrime involves criminal activities conducted through computers, networks, and the internet, often resulting in financial losses, reputational damage, and legal consequences. B2B legal services handle and store large volumes of sensitive data, including financial information and personal details such as credit card numbers, making them prime targets for cyber-attacks. For example, in October 2025, the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), a US-based government agency, reported that by 2025, it had managed 204 nationally significant cyber-attacks in the UK, more than double the 89 incidents recorded the previous year, averaging four per week. Out of a total of 429 incidents, 18 were classified as highly significant, posing serious risks to essential services - a nearly 50% increase from the prior year. Consequently, the growing prevalence of cybercrime is driving growth in the B2B legal services market.

Major companies in the business-to-business (B2B) legal services market are developing innovative products, such as LZ Books, to offer reliable solutions to clients. LZ Books is a B2B legal services product designed for go-to legal and accounting advisors. For example, in April 2023, LegalZoom.com Inc., a US-based legal services company, launched LZ Books. LZ Books is an accounting software tailored for small business owners, offering features such as expense and income tracking, invoicing, and payments. It also allows users to link their bank accounts to automatically categorize income and expenses, streamlining bookkeeping and simplifying financial management.

In March 2023, PricewaterhouseCoopers International Limited (PwC), a UK-based professional services network offering business-to-business legal services, formed a partnership with Harvey. Through this collaboration, PwC delivers legal business solutions and assists clients in streamlining their in-house legal processes. Harvey is a US-based AI-powered legal startup that provides generative AI solutions for leading law firms.
