Let's Get Practical: How Your Colleagues Are Using AI (Ethically) Today
June 25, 2025 | 11:30 am - 1:00 pm | Perry's Steakhouse - River Oaks

Join us for an engaging discussion on how in-house counsel are leveraging AI in their daily work while navigating ethical considerations. Gain practical insights and stay ahead in the rapidly evolving AI landscape. Because staying informed isn’t optional – and practical experience is the best teacher.

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, traditional records retention schedules are no longer sufficient. As organizations face increasing recordkeeping requirements, emerging privacy rules, and the need to embrace AI, retention policies must evolve from a “check-the-box” task into a strategic policy that drives compliance, eliminates data minimization conflicts, and enhances productivity. Join Kaye Cyrus, Director of Legal and Compliance at Office Practicum, and Mark Diamond and Tom Mighell from Contoural, for this insightful Webcast to learn how to create a modern, compliant, and easier-to-execute records retention schedule. 

Key Takeaways: 

• Understand the elements of a modern schedule: Integrate compliance, privacy, and business value into your records retention policy. 
• Resolve data minimization and recordkeeping conflicts: Resolve potential conflicts between retention rules and privacy data minimization mandates. 
• Enable automation: Design a schedule that supports automated classification and disposition for improved efficiency. 
• Foster AI Alignment: Learn how a schedule can either help or hurt compliant use of generative AI. 
• Build consensus: Learn strategies to align business groups on what information to retain, how long to keep it, and what can and should be defensibly deleted.

In the new federal enforcement landscape corporations are squarely in the crosshairs.  From transnational criminal probes and increased individual accountability to state-driven consumer protection and healthcare fraud crackdowns, enforcement agencies are ramping up investigative activity across many sectors.

In this timely webinar, Troutman Pepper Locke’s White Collar Litigation + Investigations team will break down how shifting enforcement priorities are impacting corporate legal departments, and how lawyers can help clients proactively manage risk and respond effectively.  Whether you're advising on internal investigations, compliance, M&A due diligence, or litigation strategy, this session offers practical insights into the evolving threat environment.

Key Topics to be Covered:

  • Responding to Subpoenas, Civil Investigative Demands (CIDs), and Search Warrants amid rising DOJ and state AG activity;
  • Witness Representation & Proffer Strategy under the administration’s push for individual accountability; 
  • Enforcement Trends Hitting Corporations: 
    • Cartel and transnational crime-linked FCPA scrutiny,
    • Increased False Claims Act cases in healthcare and PE,
    • State-level crackdowns on data privacy, consumer protection & ESG,
    • Legal risks surrounding internal DEI initiatives;
