Legora launches offices in Madrid, Milan, and Paris, along with an engineering hub in London.
Legora, the $5.6 billion legal AI platform, is set to establish offices in Madrid, Milan, and Paris, along with a London engineering hub, aiming to employ 700 staff across EMEA within a year. The current number of employees and revenue figures remain undisclosed.
The new offices are scheduled to open in Q3 2026, along with a specialized engineering hub in London. Recruitment has already commenced in all four locations, with the goal of achieving a total EMEA workforce of 700 in the next six to twelve months. This expansion follows a $600 million Series D funding round in April, which valued Legora at $5.6 billion and attracted new investors such as Nvidia’s NVentures and Atlassian. Legora currently serves over 100,000 users in more than 1,200 law firms and in-house legal teams across 50+ markets.
Spain, Italy, and France were among the earliest European nations to widely adopt Legora, with the company already enjoying substantial customer engagement prior to establishing any physical offices there. CEO and co-founder Max Junestrand stated, “Our customers in these countries have integrated Legora into their workflows.” The new offices will accommodate teams focused on customer success, market entry, and legal engineering.
The London hub will complement existing engineering centers in Stockholm and New York, enabling Legora to maintain continuous development across three time zones. Junestrand highlighted that London boasts a rich pool of AI talent, influenced by the presence of professional services firms that have high expectations for performance under legal and regulatory constraints. UK AI Minister Kanishka Narayan described the hub as “a significant endorsement of the UK’s AI capabilities.”
Legora primarily competes with Harvey AI, which was valued at $11 billion in its latest funding round. The legal AI sector has seen a surge in investment in 2026, with both firms striving to convert law firm adoption into extensive platform integration.
Legora’s client list includes notable firms such as Linklaters, White & Case, Cleary Gottlieb, Dentons, Deloitte, and Goodwin. The platform facilitates research, review, and drafting across complex legal matters through agentic workflows that automate entire processes instead of just assisting with specific tasks.
With the addition of these four new locations, Legora will have a presence in 16 cities across four continents, joining its existing sites in Stockholm, London, Munich, New York, Denver, Chicago, Houston, San Francisco, Toronto, Bengaluru, Sydney, Singapore, and Tokyo. Increasing its EMEA headcount to 700 within six to twelve months is an ambitious target. The company has not revealed its current total employee count or EMEA staff numbers, leaving the base for the 700-employee goal uncertain. Revenue details are also not publicly available. Legora's growth is supported by its recent $600 million funding, but the sustainability of the hiring pace for both Legora and Harvey will depend on whether law firm adoption can lead to steady, recurring revenue at the levels suggested by their valuations.
