Elevate Your Legal Career: Proven Tactics for Moving Up the Ladder

2:00PM ET / 11:00AM PT

Legal ops leaders who are building with AI right now are by doing and sharing their hot takes. On March 11, a few of them are sharing that knowledge directly.

Facilitated by Tommie Tavares-Ferreira — former head of legal ops and Chief Strategy Officer at Lawtrades — this is a leader’s roundtable for the people who are past 'should we use AI?' and working through what it actually takes to operationalize it: governance, rollout, team alignment, and measurable impact. The perspectives are firsthand, the conversation is open, and you'll leave with something you can actually use.

Speakers

Jennifer T. Miller

General Counsel

Danielle Coleman

Product & Risk Counsel

Sumeet Chugani

General Counsel, Chief Commercial Officer

Legal ops leaders who are building with AI right now are by doing and sharing their hot takes. On March 11, a few of them are sharing that knowledge directly.

Facilitated by Tommie Tavares-Ferreira — former head of legal ops and Chief Strategy Officer at Lawtrades — this is a leader’s roundtable for the people who are past 'should we use AI?' and working through what it actually takes to operationalize it: governance, rollout, team alignment, and measurable impact. The perspectives are firsthand, the conversation is open, and you'll leave with something you can actually use.

What We'll Cover

Where AI is delivering the highest value in legal operations right now - and the use cases leaders are prioritizing next

How to operationalize AI across a scaled legal team: rollout approach, governance and guardrails, and building something durable

What lawyer-in-the-loop review models look like in practice - real workflows from teams that have built them

The frameworks and lessons these leaders would hand to any team starting from scratch today

How to measure and communicate impact: speed, consistency, risk visibility, and how AI changes the expertise the business gets from Legal

Change management approaches that earn trust across Legal, IT, and business stakeholders - and how to bring attorneys along rather than asking them to catch up

Who Should Attend

This session is for legal operations professionals, general counsel, and in-house attorneys who are past the 'should we pilot AI?' stage and focused on making it work at scale - building something governed, durable, and actually adopted across the organization. Whether you're mid-rollout or preparing to move from first use case to full program, you'll leave with a firsthand perspective you can put to work immediately.

Why attend

If you are a legal leader who has seen enough surface‑level panels, this session is built for you.
Expect to:

See concrete examples of AI in production, including

▪  How an in house team built and governs an internal legal chatbot or agent.

Hear how these teams

▪  Decide which matters must stay bespoke and which can safely be standardized.
▪  Design “lawyer‑in‑the‑loop” review models that withstand scrutiny.

We’ll close with an unscripted Q&A where nothing is off the table: failures, reversals, vendor regrets, internal pushback, and what these leaders are betting against - as well as on - over the next 12 months.
