The author presents the results of a study of the prospects for the formation of a unified legal information space, which, along with artificial intelligence systems (AIs), would provide adequate bases for professional decision-making and solution of typical tasks for citizens and organizations. The purpose of the study is to determine the directions and ways of developing a global legal information space while preserving the advantages of local legal systems and information resources. Based on the analysis of the problems and tendencies confronting the legal entities in the risk society, author concluded that the objective conditions force them to create the low-risk unified legal information space instead of a closed and isolated one.
