Relatively-few lawyers even know what LaTeX is, let alone would be willing to use it for drafting documents for client use.

(At a family reunion a few years ago, I was discussing a book-in-progress with an extended-family member, who at the time was an exec in a very-large Silicon Valley tech company. He was astonished when I mentioned I was using LaTeX, via emacs org-mode, for the manuscript.)

And MS Word is ubiquitously used for contracts and other documents that get circulated for revision, because of Word's redlining- and commenting features. It's a network effect: "Everyone" uses Microsoft Word because "everyone else" uses Microsoft Word.
