The pace of technological development and innovation in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) is unprecedented. Few modern technologies have had as disruptive an impact as generative AI (GenAI) tools transform how tasks from the routine to the extraordinarily complex are undertaken across every industry..
With multidisciplinary capabilities and extensive experience, our team is especially well-positioned to help companies understand and respond to dynamic legal frameworks as they architect and adopt these tools. We provide comprehensive guidance on the legal implications and practical challenges presented by AI, including those in the privacy, information security, data governance, eDiscovery, intellectual property, regulatory compliance, labor and employment, contract, and risk management domains.
Our services include:
- Antitrust compliance counseling and litigation
- Commercial and contract litigation
- Data security and privacy compliance program development, implementation, and counseling
- Data breach/cybersecurity investigations and litigation
- eDiscovery and data management
- Employment compliance counseling and litigation
- Health care transactional and regulatory counseling
- Insurance
- Intellectual property licensing and litigation
- Labor and employment
- Litigation and business disputes
- Non-competition and trade secrets
- Regulatory compliance
Our attorneys possess a mix of regulatory, transactional, and litigation skills that allow us to address AI-related issues across multiple areas, including antitrust and competition law, data privacy and cybersecurity, e-discovery, intellectual property, M&A, financial services, digital health, class action litigation, insurance, government procurement, public policy, and government affairs.
Our Use of Generative AI
Our work for clients is informed and enhanced by our firm’s hands-on experience developing and deploying AI tools for more than a decade. We have long been at the forefront of using new technologies, including GenAI, for data analytics, process improvements, and automation, including through our nationally recognized eMerge subsidiary. Our attorneys, legal technologists, data scientists, and engineers regularly develop, test, and pilot GenAI solutions, ensuring that every potential use case is thoroughly vetted for legal and business risks—as well as client value—before implementation. Under the guidance of our Generative AI Task Force, we built the necessary infrastructure to securely incubate the power of GenAI and large language models (LLMs) to benefit our clients and the firm.
In August 2023, our firm unveiled Athena, an enterprise chatbot application leveraging OpenAI’s GPT models to help attorneys and business professionals safely and effectively use GenAI to more efficiently deliver legal services and enhance client experiences. Our Innovation and eMerge teams continue to explore new ways to apply GenAI tools both internally and to solve our clients’ most pressing data challenges. In 2024, we were recognized by LegalOps.com for “Best Use of AI in a Law Firm,” and by global legal technology company Relativity for “Best Innovation: Enterprise” for eMerge’s GenAI application Flywheel, which enables faster information extraction and analysis from documents and metadata.
