Artificial Intelligence and the Law: How Attorneys Are Navigating a Rapidly Changing Landscape

FORKED RIVER, NJ – Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming an increasingly common topic across many professions, including the legal field. From research tools to document review and information summaries, AI has the potential to improve efficiency across aspects of legal work. The attorneys of Dasti & Staiger are raising important questions about accuracy, oversight, and the continued importance of professional judgment.

At Dasti & Staiger, attorneys view emerging technologies as tools that can support their work but not replace the experience and legal reasoning clients rely on. “Artificial intelligence is a tool that can be utilized by the legal profession to assist with tasks involving large quantities of information such as legal research on specific topics,” explained Damian Majewsi, attorney of Dasti & Staiger. “The integration of artificial intelligence into search engines and legal resources can assist attorneys with finding accurate information quickly, allowing attorneys to provide clients with accurate information while also potentially reducing the amount of time required researching legal issues.”

While convenient and efficient, attorneys recognize that AI must always be used with careful oversight.

“Artificial Intelligence is certainly a new issue that all professions are trying to navigate, noted Chris Dasti, Managing partner of Dasti & Staiger. “We keep hearing stories of attorneys using AI to write briefs and it winds up citing cases that don’t exist.” The legal field must continue to be mindful and diligent as new technologies continue to develop.

“AI can be a great tool if used wisely – it will never replace legal acumen and should not be used to produce legal arguments, despite some using it for just that” stated Lauren Staiger, Partner of Dasti & Staiger.

As technology continues to evolve, the fundamentals of effective legal representation remain the same. Clients depend on attorneys to interpret the law, evaluate risk, and provide clear guidance based on their specific circumstances.

At Dasti & Staiger, the focus remains on combining thoughtful use of modern tools with the experience, judgment, and client-focused counsel that strong legal representation requires.
