Morphology
The phrase is a direct composition of 'legal' (pertaining to law) + 'expert' (a person with deep knowledge), so a B1 learner who knows both words will understand it as someone who is an expert in legal matters. The modern informal use for an AI system is a straightforward extension of that meaning and does not make the phrase opaque.
Etymology
The modern use of legal expert keeps the same idea—legal (about law) plus expert (very skilled)—but now picture a smart program that reads cases and drafts documents like a lawyer, so the term can also mean 'an AI or program that does legal work'.
