Building a Better Case: Practical Uses of AI from Client Intake to Trial Preparation

With so many new legal technology and AI tools available, how do attorneys determine what actually fits their practice? Join Thomson Reuters Westlaw/CoCounsel, Smokeball, and Supio for a practical look at the modern litigation lifecycle and how technology can support attorneys from intake and medical-record review through research, case strategy, and trial preparation.

Participants will:
• Understand where technology can be leveraged throughout the litigation lifecycle.
• Evaluate legal technology solutions based on use case, integration, cost, and workflow impact.
• Identify practical applications for AI during intake, case assessment, record review, legal research, and trial preparation.
• Recognize ethical considerations and attorney responsibilities when using AI-powered tools.
• Develop a framework for selecting technology that aligns with firm goals and client needs.

Speakers: 
Karoline Buck, Bar Association Ambassador, Small Law Firms, Thomson Reuters / Westlaw and CoCounsel
Kevin Mould, Product Marketing Director, Supio
Jordan Turk, Attorney, Director of Education, Smokeball
