AI Masterclass: Using AI Effectively and Ethically
May 20, 2026 | 12:00 pm – 2:00 pm EDT

About this Event
The practice of law is evolving. As generative artificial intelligence moves from a novelty to a daily necessity, counsel must walk a tightrope: harnessing the undeniable power of AI while upholding the highest standards of ethics and professional responsibility.
Join us for this 2-hour masterclass led by legal tech expert Paul Unger, who will help our community of higher education lawyers bridge the gap between cutting-edge productivity and ethical practice. This fast-paced, practical webinar is designed to provide you with a comprehensive prompt engineering toolkit while simultaneously establishing the ethical framework required to use AI tools responsibly.
- Accelerated Productivity: Discover how to engineer prompts to save hours of work on drafting and reviewing contracts, refining legal writing, and boosting practice management strategies.
- Complex Summarization: Learn to use AI to quickly digest records, case law, and lengthy depositions.
- Ethical Compliance: Examine AI usage through the lens of the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct, with a specific focus on the duties of competence, supervision, and maintaining confidentiality.
- Risk Mitigation: Gain practical strategies for identifying “AI hallucinations” and ensuring data security.
- Strategic Integration: Learn how to evaluate which emerging technologies can be ethically and responsibly integrated into your practice and which potential pitfalls to avoid.
