Building A Happy & Mindful Legal Culture

June 6, 2021

Event Details

450 million people around the world struggle with their mental health. And the legal industry is not immune.

Lawyers are 3.6 times more likely on average to suffer from mental health than people in other professions… and the Covid-19 pandemic hasn’t made things any easier!

‍

Lawtrades is delighted to present ‘Building a happy and mindful legal culture’, a panel event where renowned legal professionals come together to discuss their own personal experiences around mental health and how to build a happy legal culture.

‍

Join Michael Marchand (VP Head of Legal, Headspace), Ellen Hochberg (GC, Gympass), Patrick Lytle (GC, Ginger), and Bree Buchanan (President, Institute of Wellbeing in Law) who will share best practices on how to stay mentally healthy in our demanding industry during challenging times.

AI is no longer experimental for legal teams; it is quietly reshaping how high‑performing departments deliver advice, manage risk, and prove value to the business. This session is a candid, practitioner‑level look inside the legal teams at Google, Reddit, and Zapier, focused on what they are actually doing with AI today.Each speaker will run a structured show‑and‑tell of their AI workflows: how they scoped the use case, what the stack looks like (models, agents, automations), how they stress‑tested it, and what success looked like. You will see both the upside and the constraints.

You'll learn:
‍
• How top legal teams are using AI to streamline legal work
• A live “show and tell” of real AI workflows in legal
• Actionable strategies to scale AI adoption in your legal department
