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.

Whether you’re a GC without legal ops, a solo in-house attorney juggling it all, or part of a small team trying to scale, this session is built for lean legal departments that need to make meaningful progress—fast. With limited time, budget, and backup, knowing what to prioritize (and what to ignore) can be the difference between spinning wheels and driving impact.
Join us on Monday, April 28, 2025, at 12pm ET / 9am PT as a Chief Legal Officer from two AI-native companies and a legal ops strategist who’s built the function from the ground up four times share a real-world framework for streamlining legal operations without losing momentum. You’ll get clarity on what matters most right now—and how to make legal feel bigger than it is through smart systems, repeatable wins, and effective cross-functional partnerships.
Discussion Topics Include:
- What to fix right now—and what can wait—when building legal ops from scratch
- A 5-day Legal Ops Overhaul Plan to help you stabilize and scale fast
- Safe and strategic ways to leverage AI in lean legal environments
- How to reduce busywork, streamline requests, and increase legal’s visibility
- Cross-functional collaboration techniques that reduce friction and build credibility
Who Should Attend
This session is designed for in-house counsel, GCs, legal operations professionals, and small legal teams navigating growth, scale, or high demand with limited resources. If you’re building the plane while flying it, this webinar will help you chart a clearer path forward—without burning out.

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.
