Vancouver legaltech startup Walter has added McCarthy Tétrault LLP to its AI Joint Innovation Program, a collaboration with major firms to embed AI into real legal workflows. Walter, founded by entrepreneur Ryan Wilson, consolidates scattered client records into one “source of truth” for law firms and corporate clients.
Its new AI Agent works natively within Microsoft Word and Outlook, tracking changes, preserving formatting, and drafting reply emails. McCarthy Tétrault is co-designing features, testing them inside live matters, and building governance frameworks around risk and compliance. The initiative emphasizes practical deployment and trusted adoption over theoretical or flashy demonstrations.
