The Program

AI is no longer speculative in law—it is actively transforming how legal services are delivered, priced, trained for, and regulated. From research and drafting to litigation strategy, client advisory work, and legal education, AI is altering both the professional identity of lawyers and the underlying business model of law. It is reshaping client expectations and forcing a reframe on training, ethics, and economic structures. The discussion will address both the opportunities and the risks, with a focus on how legal institutions can adapt responsibly while preserving human judgment, professional standards, and public trust.

Each panelist will offer brief opening reflections on how AI is transforming the legal profession and the business of law. The conversation will then turn to an open exchange with the audience to explore opportunities, risks, ethical challenges, and the future of legal services.
