Artificial Intelligence has become the latest topic of discussion, bringing up memories of Blade Runner, The Matrix, and other Hollywood hits.

But what does AI mean for the legal practice? Will AI, specifically Generative AI (GenAI), create a “new” way for lawyers to draft documents, conduct legal research and perform other time-consuming tasks?

In case you are unfamiliar, GenAI is the form of artificial intelligence that can generate data in real time by utilizing existing datapoints from images, videos, text, and other mediums. GenAI – and its first public model, ChatGPT – is being hailed as a technological breakthrough and a means for artificial intelligence to communicate, research, and create original works.

Join our panel of experts as they explain the uses, benefits, and risks of Generative AI, including:

• What GenAI is and why lawyers should care about it
• How to ask questions and get answers from GenAI
• What kind of original works can be created
• How lawyers could use GenAI in practice
• What risks are posed, including ethical considerations

In October 2022, the Supreme Court heard argument in Sackett v US EPA to determine the proper test for determining whether wetlands are “waters of the United States” under the Clean Water Act. The Sackett family bought their land in 2004 and obtained the necessary permits to build a modest three-bedroom family home. Shortly after they began construction, EPA officials demanded they stop, alleging that their land was a protected wetland under federal jurisdiction.

The EPA’s compliance order claimed the construction violated the CWA because their property was a federally regulated “navigable water.”

What exactly qualifies this land as “navigable water”? And how does this relate to Wetlands Regulation?

Michael Rikon of Goldstein, Rikon, Rikon & Levi, P.C. explains it all in our new blog post, “Wetland Regulations”.

Joint venture relationships can become thorny when partners do not properly express the extent to which each is able to engage in outside ventures that may compete with the primary venture.
On the one hand, certain partners are likely to engage in numerous similar projects and their freedom to do so is integral to their success.

On the other hand, both partners have an interest in ensuring their venture is successful without conflicts of interest or poaching from a partner’s competing projects.

This article, written by Holland & Knight LLP partners Alexis Alonzo and Ariel Robinson, answers those inquiries and more, now available on our blog:

The US Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission are continuing to step up measures to bolster antitrust enforcement in the labor market. Most recently there has been a special focus on cracking down on employers who participate in anticompetitive conduct through overly restrictive non-compete and no-poach agreements that the agencies see as reducing employees’ career opportunities and limiting wage growth.

In this environment of heightened enforcement, employers must be aware of the significant antitrust exposure that can result from these types of arrangements to avoid running afoul of antitrust laws in their labor agreements.

Join us for our upcoming extensive webcast, Non-Competes, Wage Fixing, and No-Poach Agreements: Hot Issues and Looming Changes, and learn how to avoid these pitfalls: https://www.ali-cle.org/course/Non-Competes-Wage-Fixing-and-No-Poach-Agreements-Hot-Issu-VCEU0301

Determining the value of real property has its nuances.

When determining the value, a recent sale of a parcel is extremely relevant. If a sale was an open market transaction with a buyer under no compulsion to buy and a seller under no compulsion to sell, the transaction, unless explained otherwise, is considered a fair market sale at the time of the sale.

Learn all about the valuation process of real property in relation to a recent purchase, now in our new blog post, written by Goldstein, Rikon, Rikon & Levi, P.C. founding partner Michael Rikon.
