AI tools can already summarise case law, suggest contract clauses, and review disclosure. But a solicitor's core obligation—duty of care—cannot be delegated to a language model. This book shows you where AI genuinely adds speed and where it introduces risk that your professional indemnity insurer will not cover. You will learn how to brief an assistant effectively, how to verify its output before it reaches a client or a court, and—crucially—how to recognise the confident-sounding errors that every model makes. No hype. No false promises. Just a practitioner's guide to using drafting and research tools without breaching confidentiality, privilege, or your regulatory obligations. Every chapter ends with a verification checklist and a reminder: AI drafts; the qualified solicitor decides and remains accountable. Part of The AI at Work Library.
