Artificial intelligence (AI) represents the main characteristic of the Fifth Industrial Revolution and finds its application in numerous aspects of social and work life. One of the areas on which the development of AI, and especially chatbots, can have a significant impact is professions that are based on knowledge, such as the legal profession. In this paper, we analyze the possi-bilities of applying AI tools, primarily ChatGPT, in different legal professions, and give a general view of this issue. Moreover, a survey was conducted among 142 legal professionals regarding their opinion on the use of AI tools in their work. The results showed that the majority of the respondents were familiar with the terms “AI” and “ChatGPT”, but rarely used them while per-forming legal tasks. Furthermore, a positive attitude towards the use of AI was observed, but also the caution regarding its neg-ative aspects. Finally, the respondents showed an affirmative attitude towards the continuance of the legal profession, in which the use of “smart tools” could be implemented in a legally and ethically justified way.
