Generative AI is changing how lawyers conduct research, manage complex matters, and deliver legal services. But what does this transformation look like in practice, and how will it change the skills lawyers need to succeed?

Join Women of Stanford Law, SLATA, and Legora for a conversation with legal engineers who have worked across leading law firms, in-house legal departments, and corporate compliance. Our panelists will share firsthand perspectives on how AI is changing legal workflows, what lawyers should understand about these emerging tools, and how the relationship between legal expertise and technology is evolving.

Through practical examples and an interactive demonstration, we’ll explore what the future of legal practice might look like—and how today’s law students can prepare for it.

Panelists:

• Ali Jordan — Litigation and Law Firm Innovation: Drawing on her experience at Fenwick & West, Ali can discuss how AI is changing litigation workflows, legal research, and the work traditionally performed by junior associates.
• Paul Rivera — In-House Legal Operations and Technology: With experience at Cooley and more than a decade at Google, Paul can speak to how corporate legal departments approach technology adoption, efficiency, risk, and collaboration with outside counsel.
• Lauren Stevens — Compliance and Risk Management: Building on her experience as Compliance Counsel at Everpure and her early career at Goodwin, Lauren can discuss AI adoption in compliance-sensitive environments, legal risk, and the balance between innovation and professional responsibility.
