AI Agents and Data Handling
In this guide, I explain why AI agents built on artificial intelligence are not ordinary software, showing how autonomous agents decide at runtime which data to access, which tools to invoke, and which actions to take across enterprise systems, creating unpredictable scope and cascading risks that traditional SaaS contracts and security models cannot handle. I highlight how AI agents chain tools and APIs, cross system boundaries, and maintain persistent memory, which complica

Contracting with AI Vendors
In this guide, I give lawyers a structured framework for negotiating AI vendor agreements, starting with the service’s intended use, the information it handles, and the actions it may take. I cover data use, ownership, outside providers, performance evidence, human review, privacy, privilege, security, indemnities, liability, insurance, product changes, and exit rights. The guide also includes sample clauses and checklists for higher-risk uses, AI agents, and customer-specifi

AI For Lawyers
In this guide, I provide a practical roadmap for how lawyers can use AI and artificial intelligence responsibly across contract drafting, legal research, document review, and knowledge management, starting with clear explanations of how large language models work and where they fit into real-world legal workflows. I show how AI and artificial intelligence can boost efficiency while also creating new risks around accuracy and AI hallucinations, and I explain how ethics rules a

Managing AI Hallucinations
In this guide, I explain how AI systems used in legal practice can generate “AI hallucinations,” meaning confident but fabricated or unsupported legal content that looks real, especially fake case citations, misdescribed holdings, and invented statutes. I stress that these AI hallucinations are not rare glitches but a structural result of next-token prediction, training data gaps, and architectural limits, and that even specialized legal tools still show measurable hallucinat

Responsible AI in Legal Practice: Managing Accuracy, Confidentiality, and Ethical Risk
Legal teams already use AI across contracts, research, and workflows, but adoption has outpaced understanding. This article explains how generative AI works, why risks like hallucinations, data exposure, bias, and accountability are unavoidable, and what responsible use looks like in practice. It translates bar guidance and real-world experience into concrete steps legal teams can take to adopt AI deliberately while keeping judgment, confidentiality, and professional responsi

When Everyone Has Information, Judgment Becomes Everything
When AI handles routine legal work, judgment becomes the scarcest resource. It's not abstract wisdom. It's filtering signal from noise, asking right questions, and knowing when to override algorithms. Lawyers must develop judgment systematically to deliver value clients will pay for.

The Al Didn't Replace Us - It Revealed Us
AI reveals what lawyering actually is: not document review and contract drafting, but human judgment, empathy, and creative problem-solving that no algorithm can replicate.

On Agentic AI for Legal Teams
Introduction AI agents represent a meaningful shift in how legal teams use technology. Traditional generative AI responds to prompts by producing content. Agents go further. They act. By combining language models with goals, tools, and memory, agents execute multi-step workflows across connected systems. For legal teams, this expands automation beyond isolated tasks into coordinated processes. Agents can review intake requests, extract key facts, validate deadlines against ma
