Legora, an AI platform for lawyers, is valued at $5.55 billion after securing a $550 million Series D to expand its presence in the U.S. Despite competition from rivals like Harvey, Microsoft Copilot, and large language models, Legora stands out for supporting lawyers with complex cases. The company’s platform is now integrated into the workflows of 800 law firms and legal teams. The Series D round was led by Accel, with contributions from existing investors such as Benchmark, Bessemer, General Catalyst, ICONIQ, Redpoint Ventures, and Y Combinator, along with new participants including Alkeon Capital, Bain Capital, Firstmark Capital, Menlo Ventures, Salesforce Ventures, Sands Capital, and Starwood Capital.
There is growing investor interest in AI legal tech, as shown by Legora’s recent funding and valuation increases following its October 2025 Series C round. Harvey, a competitor valued at $8 billion, is reportedly aiming for an $11 billion valuation with its next raise. Both companies are expanding globally, with Harvey focusing on Europe and Legora in the U.S. Legora, formerly Judilica and then Leya, originated from Stockholm’s SSE Business Lab and participated in YC’s winter 2024 batch before relocating its headquarters to New York. The American market has exceeded Legora’s expectations, with significant growth in its team size from 40 to 400 members.
Legora operates offices in New York, Stockholm, Bangalore, London, and Sydney, with plans to open more in Houston and Chicago, aiming to expand its U.S. workforce to over 300 by 2026.
