The AI Advantage: Practical Implications of AI in Legal Departments (CLE-Eligible)

Legal departments have a unique opportunity to lead the charge in adopting artificial intelligence (AI)—a shift from their traditional position of following other business units. But as with any transformative technology, legal teams must approach AI with a measured, fact-based strategy.

Join us for a discussion featuring two of CCBJ’s 50 Women to Watch as we delve into the practical implications of implementing AI in legal. We’ll explore the critical questions every legal department should ask before embarking on their AI journey. Whether you’re a General Counsel, Legal Operations leader, or part of a legal leadership team, this session will provide actionable insights including:

• Assessing Readiness: How to evaluate your department’s preparedness for AI implementation.
• Identifying Risks: How to look where the light doesn’t shine it’s brightest – Where are the risks hiding?
• Strategic Prioritization: Which legal functions—litigation, contract management, knowledge management—should adopt AI first?
• Collaborative Approaches: Approaches for engaging with executive teams, legal leadership, and outside counsel on AI initiatives.
• Setting Expectations: What outcomes/ROI should you aim for—radical efficiency, enabling lawyers to “practice more law”, or something more qualitative?

Don’t miss this chance to gain insights from two of CCBJ’s 50 Women to Watch on ways to take a measured, fact-based approach to implementing AI.
