Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how legal services are delivered, creating new layers of ethical responsibility and operational risk for attorneys. This CLE program explores how existing rules of professional conduct apply in an AI-enabled environment, focusing on core obligations such as technological competence, appropriate supervision of both human and automated tools, protection of client confidences, transparency in client communications, and accuracy in representations to courts and tribunals.

The program also examines the growing role of AI within judicial and administrative systems, and how these developments may influence litigation tactics, evidentiary considerations, and advocacy strategies. Beyond internal law firm use, the course provides practical guidance for advising clients on AI adoption—covering risk assessment, compliance considerations, data handling practices, and governance structures.

Participants will come away with actionable insights for integrating AI into legal practice responsibly, while maintaining adherence to professional standards and effectively counseling clients navigating an increasingly AI-driven landscape.
