Who will be teaching

Lab Co-Directors Damien Charlotin and Erin Fraser will anchor the teaching team, alongside Profs. Tal Niv and Drew Amerson. The Lab will also feature guest lecturers from the world of practice, bringing current perspectives on how legal professionals and institutions are approaching AI.

Why we created this Lab

Building on the AI Enabled Lawyer Lab pilot (then named “the bootcamp”) which we ran last year, we are proud to offer another two cohorts of the Lab coming this spring, which we invite you to apply to.

The Lab is a six-session, hands-on program focused on using, testing, and implementing generative AI in different types of legal work. Students attending the lab will build practical workflows, evaluate AI outputs, and address the professional questions that matter in practice, including accuracy, confidentiality, supervision, disclosure, and governance.

What you’ll be able to do by the end

You will be able to:

● go beyond “chat” to build repeatable workflows (playbooks, checklists, evaluation frameworks)

● evaluate AI tools and vendors like someone who can lead technical change (not just use products)

● make build vs. buy decisions, and explain them to legal and technical stakeholders

● spot and manage privilege, confidentiality, conflicts, and competence issues in AI-augmented practice

The application is not a test of technical expertise. We are looking for students who will bring curiosity, reliability, sound judgment, and a willingness to test and revise their work. We will review for fit, based on:

● your interest in hands-on experimentation

● your ability to commit to the schedule

● the value you’re likely to get (and contribute) in a cohort setting
