1.1 Background of the Study

Legal research is a critical component of the justice system, requiring comprehensive analysis of statutes, case laws, and precedents. Traditional methods of legal research are often time-consuming and prone to errors. Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools have revolutionized this process by enabling rapid data retrieval, pattern recognition, and predictive analysis.

The Ministry of Justice in Kano State has adopted AI tools to enhance legal research capabilities, streamline case preparation, and improve decision-making processes. By automating repetitive tasks and providing intelligent insights, AI significantly reduces the workload on legal professionals and enhances the quality of legal services (Aliyu & Musa, 2025). This study explores the impact of AI tools on legal research in Kano State.

Legal professionals in Kano State face challenges such as information overload, time constraints, and limited access to comprehensive legal databases. Despite the potential of AI tools, their adoption remains limited due to cost, lack of training, and resistance to change.

1.3 Objectives of the Study

  1. To analyze the adoption of AI tools in legal research at the Ministry of Justice, Kano State.

  2. To assess the impact of AI tools on the efficiency and accuracy of legal research.

  3. To identify barriers to the implementation of AI in legal research.

1.4 Research Questions

  1. How are AI tools being used in legal research at the Ministry of Justice in Kano State?
