Overview

Go From Vulnerable to Prepared in an Hour

Artificial intelligence tools are already in your law firm - whether you've allowed it or not. Associates are using ChatGPT to draft memos. Paralegals are running contracts through AI reviewers. Clients are asking whether you use AI. And bar associations across the country are issuing guidance that puts the responsibility squarely on the supervising attorney. This course cuts through the noise and gives you a solid framework for a working AI policy by the time you log off. Rather than surveying AI at 30,000 feet, this session is structured as a step-by-step implementation guide. Leave with a completed policy framework, a vendor vetting checklist, a client disclosure template, and a clear staff rollout plan. Register today!

  • Distinguish between approved and prohibited AI use cases for your firm.
  • Draft a firm-specific AI policy using the provided framework.
  • Evaluate AI vendors using a structured due diligence checklist.
  • Create a client-facing AI disclosure that satisfies current bar guidance.
  • Design a 30-day staff rollout plan for the policy.
