Integrating Artificial Intelligence in the Workplace:

   Is the Value of Using AI Worth the Risk to Employers?

Our Data Privacy and Labor & Employment attorneys will share their insights on the fast-moving developments of AI in the workplace, how it is already being used, burgeoning opportunities on the near horizon, and how to avoid the missteps that could trip up your company in navigating these opportunities.

Emerging Technologies and Privacy Litigation

Our Class Action and Privacy litigators will discuss the emerging trends and hot-button issues in technology-driven privacy litigation, including claims involving biometrics, the Video Privacy Protection Act, website functionality and wiretapping, and other “gotcha” claims being brought across the country, and how to proactively protect your company and preempt such claims.

AI-powered tools and technologies are revolutionizing legal practice. This webinar delves into the crucial relationship between ethics, innovation, and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in the legal profession. Within the context of key rules of professional responsibility, learn how attorneys can best incorporate the benefits of AI technology while maintaining the delicate ethical boundaries that must be upheld.

Caitlin Jones, Esq., experienced Business Litigation and Professional Liability attorney, will share her insights, exploring real-world examples that highlight the ethical challenges and opportunities that AI presents. You will gain some understanding of the evolving ethical landscape and equip yourself with the knowledge needed to embrace AI responsibly.

Baker McKenzie and ACC Southern California's Attorney Well Being Committee invite you to our summer wellness event. The evening will feature appetizers, a 1-hour CLE presentation on Maintaining Mental Health and Wellness in the Legal Profession (which qualifies for Competency CLE credit in California) followed by a fun chocolate truffle making session. Chocolate is a comfort food, and for good reason. Research shows that consuming chocolates releases neurotransmitters in the brain that produce a euphoric effect, help reduce stress, and decrease pain. Guests will receive a Brazilian Brigadeiro (chocolate truffle) making kit of their choice, and an in-person chocolatier will guide participants through the engaging experience. What better way to relax and enhance wellness than with food, chocolate, and good conversation on ways to improve mental health?! Join us!

Space is limited, so register early!  Registration ends July 12th.

  • What are the requirements for independent contractors?
