Cut through the hype, avoid costly implementation mistakes, and build a high-impact legal tech roadmap that prioritizes real-world results over automation.

AI is rapidly becoming part of everyday legal practice, but successful adoption starts with identifying the right problem—not simply choosing a tool. This practical, vendor-neutral session introduces a design thinking framework for evaluating legal technology based on real practice needs, user impact, efficiency, quality, risk, and trust.
Participants will explore how the framework can be applied to common legal AI use cases, including document review, client intake, drafting, knowledge management, and triage. The session also considers how AI adoption intersects with professional obligations such as competence, supervision, confidentiality, and duties to the court. Rather than promoting specific products, the program equips practitioners with a structured approach to asking better questions, evaluating solutions, and implementing AI more safely and effectively across different areas of legal practice.
