Your duty of supervision now includes the software.

Lawyers in your firm are already using AI tools on client matters. The professional rules on competence, confidentiality and supervision were written before these tools existed, and they apply to them anyway. The question a disciplinary panel or a malpractice carrier will ask is not whether your firm used AI. It is whether anyone was supervising it.

A written AI use policy drafted against the rules and opinions that govern your jurisdiction and practice areas. A tool matrix telling your associates which products are permitted on privileged matters, with the actual retention terms of each. A data handling standard separating privileged from non-privileged material. Training your lawyers will actually sit through.
