Law firms, legal departments, and dispute resolution providers are using AI to support research, knowledge management, drafting, document review, case preparation, and administrative workflows. These tools can improve efficiency and service delivery, but their use raises important concerns about confidentiality, accuracy, professional responsibilities, and independent judgment.

Key issues include:

• Protection of client confidential information, privileged materials, and sensitive case data
• Verification of AI-generated research, citations, factual statements, and work product
• Professional responsibility, human oversight, and supervision of employee and contractor AI use
• Disclosure and consent requirements, including applicable court and tribunal rules
• Vendor terms governing data use, model training, retention, and security
• Safeguards for AI use in arbitration, mediation, and other dispute resolution processes
