Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming the practice of law. This session examines how attorneys are integrating AI tools into their workflows, the practical benefits these technologies offer, and the corresponding risks practitioners must evaluate before deployment. Understanding the current landscape is essential for counsel seeking to leverage AI effectively while safeguarding client interests.
The discussion covers the range of AI applications now in use across law firms and corporate legal departments, from generative drafting tools and predictive analytics to automated document review. It addresses the gap between personal AI adoption and firm-wide implementation, the lack of consistent internal policies, and the practical realities attorneys face when deciding whether and how to deploy these tools in client matters.

AI-driven decision-making is generating novel theories of liability across multiple practice areas. The discussion addresses emerging causes of action arising from AI use, the defenses available to practitioners and their clients, and the unique challenges AI presents in discovery and admissibility. Counsel will gain a framework for navigating AI-related evidence from preservation through trial.
As AI systems become embedded in business operations and legal processes, attorneys must anticipate how these tools generate discoverable data and how courts evaluate AI-derived evidence for reliability and admissibility. The panel examines the evolving case law surrounding AI-related claims, the technical and procedural hurdles in obtaining and authenticating AI evidence, and the defense strategies that are emerging in response to this new class of litigation.

Practical guidance for attorneys encountering AI in litigation, offering actionable strategies to manage risk, advise clients, and adapt to the evolving technological landscape.
This segment synthesizes the core lessons from the program’s litigation-focused sessions into a concrete framework that practitioners can apply immediately. Topics include developing internal protocols for AI use in case preparation, advising clients on AI-related exposure, and anticipating judicial expectations around the disclosure and verification of AI-generated work product.

1:45 pm - 2:00 pm EST
City University of New York (CUNY)
The integration of AI into legal practice implicates several foundational ethics rules. The panel provides a comprehensive analysis of counsel’s duties when utilizing AI tools, including competence (Rule 1.1), confidentiality (Rule 1.6), communication and informed consent (Rule 1.4), fee arrangements and the future of hourly billing (Rule 1.5), and supervisory responsibilities over attorneys and staff (Rules 5.1–5.3).
As bar associations and courts issue new guidance on AI use, practitioners must understand how longstanding professional conduct rules apply to emerging technologies. This session walks through each implicated rule with practical scenarios, examining how competence now requires technological literacy, how confidentiality obligations restrict the use of third-party AI platforms, how informed consent duties extend to disclosing AI involvement in client matters, how billing models must account for AI-generated efficiencies, and how supervising attorneys bear responsibility for the AI-assisted work product of associates and nonlawyer staff.

AI-generated content carries inherent risks of fabrication and inaccuracy, and AI-powered tools are increasingly being used for juror research on social media platforms, both of which implicate counsel’s duties of candor, competence, and compliance with court orders. Obligations under Rules 3.3, 3.4, and 3.5 require vigilance when relying on AI-generated research or when using technology to investigate prospective jurors.
Courts across the country have sanctioned, fined, suspended, and referred attorneys for discipline after AI-generated hallucinations fabricated case citations, fictitious quotations, and misrepresented holdings appeared in filed briefs and motions. At the same time, attorneys have faced sanctions for conducting social media research on prospective jurors in ways that violate standing orders or trigger automatic notifications, as illustrated by the $10,000 sanction imposed in Contour IP Holding, LLC v. GoPro, Inc. (N.D. Cal. 2025) for LinkedIn-based juror research that violated the court’s standing order. This session examines leading disciplinary cases in both areas, the verification protocols every practitioner should adopt before submitting AI-assisted work product, and the ethical boundaries attorneys must observe when using technology, including AI-powered tools to research the jury venire. The discussion also addresses the emerging question of whether opposing counsel has a duty to detect and report an adversary’s hallucinated citations.
