Overview
- BARBRI completed the acquisition of Lega on Monday, with Lega’s small staff transferring into BARBRI and financial terms not disclosed.
- Christian Lang, Lega’s founder who previously worked at Davis Polk and Reynen Court, joins BARBRI as Head of Innovation to oversee the combined AI training effort.
- Lega’s offering combines a SaaS generative-AI lab with hands-on, build-first workshops, simulations and hackathons that teach users to experiment safely and develop judgment when using AI.
- BARBRI says it will integrate Lega’s tools across its SkillBurst and BARBRI AI courses and expand live, scenario-based sessions to bring students and practicing lawyers together around real legal problems.
- The acquisition responds to rising demand from law schools and firms for practical AI training and could speed workforce readiness by moving learners from basic awareness to applied AI skills and judgment.
