AI-Enhanced Writing Workshops
Practice reviewing, directing, and improving AI-assisted legal work.
Is This Ready to Send? Reviewing AI-Assisted Legal Work
90 minutes
For: Associates, counsel, partners, and in-house lawyers who draft or review work.
AI drafts read well, and that is the problem. A fluent draft can change a fact, drop the qualification that mattered, or answer a question nobody asked, and none of it shows on the surface. This workshop builds the habit of reviewing AI-assisted work the way a good senior lawyer reviews an associate’s: what does the reader need, what did the draft actually claim, and what has to be checked before your name goes on it.
Your team learns to separate polish from substance, to notice what is missing as quickly as what is wrong, and to give feedback that fixes a draft rather than restarting it. They leave with a way of reading AI work that they can use on the next thing that lands in their inbox.
From Assignment to Verified Deliverable: Directing AI on a Legal Matter
90 minutes
For: Lawyers who have tried AI and want a repeatable process for legal work.
Most lawyers use AI one prompt at a time and get one draft at a time. What changes the results is directing the work: turning a vague request into a defined assignment, deciding what the tool should do and what stays with you, and knowing which intermediate output will show you a mistake before the final one hides it.
This workshop takes your team through a matter from the first ask to the handoff, with the interruptions real matters bring. They practice scoping, sequencing, and checking, and they leave with a way of working that holds up when the next assignment looks nothing like this one.
Build Your Team’s AI Writing Playbook
90-minute workshop · Optional follow-up clinic
For: An intact practice group or legal department.
Every group that uses AI already has a playbook. It lives in individual habits, and no two people’s match. This workshop gets a practice group or legal department to agree on what good work looks like for the assignments they see most, then turn that agreement into something a colleague can pick up and use without the authors in the room.
The skill is turning shared judgment into written standards that hold up under deadline pressure. Your team leaves with the start of a working playbook and a way to keep it current. The optional clinic brings the group back after they have used it, to fix what practice revealed.
