LexisNexis Legal & Professional and EvenUp have announced a strategic alliance that will connect LexisNexis’ legal artificial intelligence capabilities with EvenUp’s AI-powered platform for personal injury law firms.
The partnership is designed to bring legal research, case intelligence and document automation closer together, giving personal injury attorneys access to a broader set of AI-powered tools within the platforms they already use.
The companies announced the alliance on September 1, 2026, describing the collaboration as an effort to help personal injury professionals work more efficiently across different stages of a case, from analyzing claims and researching the law to developing case strategy and preparing legal documents.
LexisNexis Protégé Comes to EvenUp
One of the central elements of the partnership will be the integration of LexisNexis Protégé into EvenUp’s platform.
Through EvenUp’s Companion AI Assistant, mutual customers will be able to access legal insights powered by LexisNexis Protégé and grounded in authoritative legal materials, including case law and statutes.
The system is designed to provide supporting source information and links to the underlying legal authority available through Lexis+ with Protégé. This approach is intended to give attorneys access to AI-generated legal insights while maintaining a connection to the primary legal sources behind those responses.
For law firms increasingly using AI for legal research and case preparation, the ability to connect AI-generated answers with authoritative legal materials has become an important consideration.
EvenUp’s Personal Injury Intelligence Comes to Lexis+
The collaboration will also work in the opposite direction.
Customers using Lexis+ with Protégé will be able to draw on EvenUp’s personal injury-specific case intelligence as part of their legal work. The companies say this will allow lawyers to combine legal research with information and insights from individual personal injury cases.
The planned capabilities will also include agentic drafting features for generating legal documents in multiple formats, with the ability to save those documents to the corresponding case within EvenUp.
This integration is intended to reduce the need for attorneys to move repeatedly between separate applications while working on the same matter.
A Push Toward More Connected Legal AI
The partnership reflects a broader shift in the legal technology industry toward AI systems that can combine legal research with information specific to an individual case.
Personal injury attorneys often have to work across several stages of a matter, including reviewing facts, analyzing claims, researching applicable law, developing strategy and preparing documents. Traditionally, those tasks may require multiple specialized software platforms.
LexisNexis and EvenUp are seeking to bring some of those workflows together.
“Personal injury attorneys shouldn’t need a collection of disconnected AI tools to build one case,” said Rami Karabibar, CEO and co-founder of EvenUp, emphasizing the potential of combining LexisNexis’ legal research capabilities with EvenUp’s personal injury-focused technology.
Sean Fitzpatrick, CEO of LexisNexis Legal, said the collaboration is intended to provide legal professionals with access to legal AI and information within the environments where they already work.
The companies expect the new capabilities resulting from the alliance to become available later in 2026.
What the LexisNexis and EvenUp Partnership Means for Lawyers
For personal injury law firms, the significance of the partnership goes beyond adding another AI feature to an existing legal technology platform.
The companies are attempting to connect two different types of information: authoritative legal research and case-specific intelligence.
LexisNexis brings its extensive legal information and AI capabilities, while EvenUp focuses specifically on the workflows and data involved in personal injury cases. Bringing the two together could allow attorneys to move more seamlessly between understanding the facts of a case, identifying relevant law and turning that analysis into legal documents.
The development also highlights an increasingly important issue for legal AI: ensuring that AI tools are useful not only for generating information, but also for connecting that information to reliable legal authorities and the facts of a particular matter.
As law firms continue to adopt artificial intelligence, integrations between specialized legal technology platforms could become increasingly important in reducing fragmented workflows and helping attorneys use AI throughout the lifecycle of a case.
