The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Attorney-Client Relationships: Guidance for Corporate Engagements
This timely and thought-provoking work explores how generative AI (GenAI) is reshaping the delivery of legal services, particularly in corporate legal departments and their interactions with outside counsel. The authors assess both the potential benefits—such as increased efficiency and reduced costs—and the significant risks of over-reliance on AI tools in matters requiring professional legal judgment, confidentiality, and ethical oversight.
The essay introduces the concept of “collaborative vigilance”—a framework for how clients and attorneys can work together to responsibly integrate AI into legal workflows without compromising the independence, quality, and trust at the core of the attorney-client relationship. It also provides best practices for law firms and legal departments to adopt clear, ethical AI governance policies that safeguard professional responsibilities.
