Start 2026 with the advanced AI strategies you need to protect your practice and serve your clients.
As artificial intelligence rapidly transforms the legal landscape, understanding its risks is no longer optional - it's essential for avoiding malpractice. The failure to grasp the nuances of AI can lead to critical errors, including the submission of fictitious case law, breaches of client confidentiality, and advice tainted by algorithmic bias.
In this timely and practical webinar, presented in collaboration with nationally recognized experts, we will move beyond the hype and focus on the core competencies every New Jersey attorney must develop. Our expert panel will provide a clear-eyed look at the most significant malpractice traps associated with generative AI and offer a playbook for using these powerful tools responsibly and ethically.
Whether you're looking to fulfill your final MCLE requirements or get a critical head start on the year's most important technology trend, this program will provide the actionable guidance you need to navigate the future of law.

- Identify and Mitigate AI "Hallucinations": Learn practical techniques to verify AI-generated legal research and prevent the embarrassing and sanctionable submission of non-existent case law.
