About This Course
Every attorney is being asked whether their firm uses AI for contract work. Most legal AI CLEs are taught by attorneys who use AI tools or academics who study them. This CLE course is taught by a practicing attorney who builds production AI systems professionally, offering practitioners a technical look at what is actually happening when AI touches their contracts.
This program presents the results of a controlled experiment: the same AI model (Claude Opus 4.6) analyzed the same $4.75 billion merger agreement twice -- once through a single prompt (Variation A) and once through a custom 26-agent pipeline (Variation B). The pipeline produced 138 Track Changes with 18 legal citations versus 35 Track Changes with zero citations -- a 3.9x improvement using the exact same model. Attendees will see the specific, quantified results, learn the five technical building blocks that explain them, walk through the six-round pipeline architecture, examine ten legal workflows that use this pattern, and address the ethical obligations governing AI adoption in legal practice.
This seminar is designed for attorneys at all levels who negotiate, draft, or review contracts and want to understand what AI can and cannot do for their practice. It is appropriate for practitioners evaluating AI tools, managing attorneys assessing firm-wide AI adoption, and any attorney seeking to understand the technical reality behind legal AI marketing claims. Audience Level: All Levels.
