What you'll walk out with

Specific outcomes from this course — no fluff.

  • A clear-eyed read of the legal-AI landscape — what survived the Mata fallout, what didn't
  • The hallucination tax — how to budget for verification time honestly, not optimistically
  • Contract review with AI — first-pass redlining, clause extraction, risk flagging at scale
  • DPIA + FRIA workflows — the AI-assisted patterns that hold up at audit
  • The 4-jurisdiction posture — EU AI Act, US sector regulation, UK ICO, India DPDPA in one framework
  • Privilege + confidentiality discipline — what you can put into an AI tool and what kills the privilege
  • A quality framework with the verification log — defensible to the bar association
  • A 2-quarter rollout that delivers measurable hours back without losing the practice's standards

01

The legal AI landscape

TR Future of Professionals 2025: 79% adoption, 51% in contract review. Harvey ($3B), Spellbook 3000+ firms, CoCounsel, Vincent. BigLaw 25–40% time savings. Vals 80%+ on clauses. Stanford 17–34% hallucination — even RAG-grounded.

02

The hallucination tax

Mata v. Avianca (Schwartz $5K + letters to falsely-cited judges), Park v. Kim 2nd Cir. disciplinary referral, Iovino $1.5K. Charlotin's 100+ documented cases. Stanford "Hallucinating Law". The check-or-die rule.

03

Contract review

The killer app. Three modes: extract, compare, redline. Vals 80%+ accuracy on clauses. The 4-step workflow (AI → associate validates → partner signs deviations → 2nd lawyer on high-stakes). NDAs + MSAs first; defer bet-the-firm.

04

Privacy & DPIA reviews

GDPR Art. 35 DPIA workflow — AI generates 3 of 4 sections, DPO writes mitigations. EU AI Act Art. 27 FRIA effective Aug 2 2026. India DPDPA. The propose-and-confirm pattern: AI proposes, DPO submits.

05

Compliance posture across jurisdictions

The 4-quadrant posture: EU AI Act Annex III + Art. 26 + Art. 99; US state patchwork (NYC LL144, IL AIVIA, CO SB24-205, CA pending); India DPDPA; ABA Formal Opinion 512 + Resolution 604. The 5-section posture document.

06

Privilege & confidentiality

NY Bar Op. 1239 + ABA Op. 512: privilege survives if terms preserve confidentiality. Enterprise terms — OpenAI, Anthropic, MS Copilot, Google. The 3 vendor settings: training opt-out, tenant isolation, retention. The junior-associate-at-home failure mode.

07

Quality framework

ABA Op. 512 translated to practice. 4 operational guardrails: citation verification, human-in-the-loop, audit trail (3 reasons), quarterly accuracy review (20 random work products). The discipline that separates top-decile programs.

08

Making it stick: your legal AI roadmap

2 use cases · 2 quarters · 4 guardrails. Q1 = contract review + DPIA drafts. Q2 = one open-ended use case. 4 trust trip-wires: no client-facing AI without disclosure, no unread citations, no client data to non-enterprise tools, no "set and forget". Interactive roadmap builder.
