By in-house counsel, for in-house counsel ™
Artificial Intelligence is everywhere. Every week seems to bring a new legal tech platform, productivity tool, contract assistant, or generative AI solution claiming to transform the way legal departments work. But with so many options available, how do legal leaders separate genuine value from marketing hype?
Join fellow in-house counsel for an interactive roundtable discussion focused on the practical realities of AI adoption in corporate legal departments. Together, we'll explore where AI is delivering measurable results, where it falls short, and how legal teams can make informed decisions without chasing every new technology trend.
Topics will include:
- Identifying the legal workflows most suited for AI
- Understanding when AI adds meaningful value, and when it doesn't
- Avoiding "technology for technology's sake"
- Balancing innovation with risk, governance, and legal judgment
- Lessons learned from early adopters and real-world use cases
- Building a practical roadmap for AI within your legal function
This session is designed to be a candid, peer-driven discussion rather than a product pitch. Attendees will have the opportunity to share experiences, compare approaches, and gain actionable insights from colleagues navigating the same challenges.
Whether your legal team is just beginning its AI journey or evaluating a growing list of tools and vendors, you'll leave with a clearer framework for cutting through the noise and making smarter technology decisions.
