Toronto (Canada) – Fasken’s Emerging Technology and Venture Capital group has announced its participation in Walter’s Joint Innovation Program. This collaboration focuses on advancing the Walter AI Assistant, an AI-powered tool built directly into the Walter platform and Microsoft Outlook.

The Walter AI Assistant handles tasks such as entity creation, data entry automation, managing compliance workflows, document generation, and providing quick answers to complex legal operations questions—all within familiar software environments.

Building on a partnership established last year, Fasken and Walter aim to improve legal workflows by integrating artificial intelligence that reduces repetitive administrative tasks.

Constantinos Ragas, Partner and Co-Leader of Fasken’s Emerging Technology Group, said, “By automating routine work, the Walter AI Assistant allows us to concentrate on the higher-value legal work our clients expect. AI capabilities like this represent a major shift in how legal services can be delivered efficiently.”

Fasken supports startups, venture capital funds, and growing tech companies. The integration of Walter AI Assistant will enhance the firm’s productivity and improve daily work satisfaction by cutting down on administrative burden. This frees legal professionals to focus on strategic advice and deeper client relationships.
