Artificial Intelligence
As AI adoption accelerates, we deliver clear, actionable counsel. We help clients manage risk and seize opportunity through AI governance and regulatory compliance, while navigating IP and employment issues, litigation, and high-value licensing, data use and vendor agreements.
Trusted AI Legal Counsel for Every Stage
Artificial Intelligence drives everything from the factory floor to financial portfolios. Automated decision-making, machine learning and predictive analytics are embedded in countless technologies.
From seed stage to Fortune 500, we help businesses capture AI’s value while actively managing risk.
With the business-first, practical approach our clients expect, we deliver sophisticated yet straightforward counsel to help you adopt, deploy and develop AI responsibly.
Governance & Regulatory Compliance
AI Governance Programs
We design enterprise governance programs, including the policies, procedures and structures your business needs to comply with emerging standards like the NIST AI Risk Management Framework (RMF) and ISO 42001.
Regulatory Compliance
We help clients understand which AI laws apply to them and what’s required for compliance. State and local AI laws are expanding. They join long-existing employment and consumer protection laws that you may not realize apply to these emerging technologies. And the confusing web of applicable federal regulations and international law, like the EU AI Act, is constantly changing. We know what’s in place, what’s ahead, and what your business needs to do now.
Output and Bias Auditing
We coordinate with technology experts to assess the outputs from your AI technologies—whether developed in-house, adopted off-the-shelf, or anything in between—and evaluate for bias, employment and consumer impacts, drift, and other issues that present regulatory and liability risk. With thoughtful planning and collaboration, we provide you with data-forward, privileged legal analysis.
AI Incident Response
It’s no longer just privacy and security breaches your business needs to worry about. With AI in the mix, everything is exponentially more complicated. Whether it’s an employee putting confidential information into an AI tool they shouldn’t or an AI-enabled cyberattack, when your business suffers an AI incident, our deep bench of incident response experts is ready to respond.
AI Committee Advisor
Many clients are well-served by forming an internal AI governance committee to implement and manage their organization’s AI governance program. We offer the experience and comprehensive skill sets needed to support your AI committee, including serving as an embedded committee advisor.
