Senate Bill 7263 passed the New York Judiciary Committee 7-0 in February and would classify personalized AI legal advice as a Class E felony — punishable by up to four years in prison.

Everyone knows about St. Clair County and South Florida.

The best implementations layer intelligence on top of what you already have. Here's the architecture that actually works — and the one mistake that derails the whole thing.
Most companies track spend. A few track cycle time. The ones winning track outcome quality calibrated by case difficulty, venue, and opposing counsel. Here's their scorecard.
