Protect client confidentiality and attorney-client privilege when attorneys and staff use AI tools. Monitor, control, and audit legal AI usage while maintaining your firm's ethical obligations.
From associates drafting briefs with ChatGPT to paralegals using AI for research, the legal industry faces unique risks around privilege, confidentiality, and ethical compliance.
Associates paste case details, contracts, and client communications into ChatGPT. Attorney-client privilege is compromised the moment privileged information enters an unvetted AI system.
Bar associations are issuing AI guidelines. ABA formal opinions mandate competent AI oversight. The duty of competence now extends to understanding how your firm uses AI tools.
Harvey, CoCounsel, and dozens of legal AI startups are proliferating. Staff use consumer AI for legal research, contract review, and drafting without firm approval or security vetting.
When attorneys paste opposing counsel's arguments, settlement positions, or case strategy into AI tools, they risk exposing matter confidentiality. AI models may retain and surface this data in responses to other users.
Complete visibility and control over AI tool usage across your firm, designed with the legal profession's unique ethical obligations in mind.
DLP patterns specifically designed for contracts, case references, court filings, and privileged communications. Detect when sensitive legal content is being pasted into AI tools before it leaves the browser.
Audit logs that demonstrate AI governance to bar associations and regulators. Full support for ABA guidelines on AI usage. Document your firm's competent oversight of AI technology.
Group policies per practice area. Set different AI access rules for corporate, litigation, and IP teams. Allow Harvey for M&A but restrict consumer ChatGPT for associates handling privileged matters.
Every AI interaction is logged with timestamp, user, service, and policy action. Export audit reports for bar association inquiries, client due diligence, and internal governance reviews. Privacy-first: prompts are never stored.
Law firms face a unique intersection of professional ethics, client obligations, and data protection regulations. Privengy helps you address all of them.
ABA Formal Opinion 512 requires competent oversight of AI tools. Rule 1.1 (Competence) and Rule 1.6 (Confidentiality) demand that firms understand and control how AI is used with client data. Privengy provides the monitoring to satisfy these requirements.
State and national bar associations are rapidly issuing AI usage guidelines. Many now require disclosure of AI usage and mandate firm-level AI policies. Privengy helps you document compliance with evolving bar requirements.
Client engagements often involve cross-border data. GDPR and equivalent regulations require controls over personal data processing. DLP policies prevent client PII, case details, and privileged communications from reaching AI services outside your data jurisdiction.
Ensure your firm meets its ethical obligations while enabling attorneys to leverage AI responsibly. Deploy in minutes, protect privilege immediately.
