Researchers have developed new benchmarks to evaluate the legal reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) across different jurisdictions and languages. UA-Legal-Bench focuses on Ukrainian law, utilizing a large corpus of court decisions for tasks like case-type classification and norm extraction. Multi-Legal-Bench expands this by evaluating identical tasks across six countries, revealing that few-shot prompting effects are consistent but model performance varies significantly by jurisdiction and language. Additionally, the BenGER platform and dataset assess LLMs on German legal reasoning, introducing an LLM-as-a-Judge framework and demonstrating that human-AI co-creation outperforms unaided human work.
