Most Popular ProgramDemystifying AI: What Every Lawyer Needs to Know
The lawyers getting the most leverage from AI understand enough about how these systems work to see where AI helps, where it quietly fails, and how to stay in control. This session explains how AI tools work under the hood, and what that means for hallucinations and quality control in legal work.
What audiences walk away with:
- How large language models produce an answer, and why that makes them strong at some tasks and unreliable at others
- Why hallucinations happen, and the habits that reduce them and catch them
- Why the same question can get different answers, and when a deterministic workflow is the better choice
- Open Q&A on AI terminology, risks, and trends
60 minutes. Virtual or in-person. Designed for lawyers at every level, from junior associates to partners.

Best for Team-Specific DiscussionsBeyond Prompting: Advanced Patterns for Working with AI
Why do some lawyers get 10x more out of AI than their colleagues? The answer is not a secret bank of outstanding prompts. This session teaches the working patterns that separate the most effective AI-enabled lawyers, then opens up to questions about participants’ own work.
What audiences walk away with:
- Starting new threads to avoid context rot, with context memos that carry the work forward
- Breaking hard-to-delegate tasks into smaller steps AI can handle, with oversight at each step
- Using AI as a thought partner that sharpens the lawyer’s judgment instead of replacing it
- Using AI across a team on complex matters, not only for solo work
60 minutes. Virtual or in-person. Smaller sessions organized by practice group work best, so the discussion stays specific to the group’s work.

Highest LeverageTrain the Champions: AI Activation at Scale
Champions are busy lawyers, not professional trainers, and building AI lessons from scratch is hard. This program hands them everything they need to deliver high-quality, practice-specific AI training to their own groups, the easy way. The result is leverage: a single engagement activates AI skill-building across many practice groups at once, with the firm’s strongest practitioners leading it.
What champions walk away with:
- A toolkit of fillable lesson templates so they can teach without building anything from scratch
- A shared AI vocabulary to bring back to their practice group
- A realistic, low-burden cadence designed around busy lawyers who aren’t full-time trainers
- Follow-up check-ins with Ben to keep momentum and address new challenges
Starts with a kickoff session (virtual or in-person), followed by three 60-minute check-ins over three to six months. Additional support available.
