The AI Advantage: Practical Tools for the Modern Bankruptcy Attorney
Friday April 10, 2026 2:30pm - 3:30pm EDT
Artificial intelligence and automation are no longer on the horizon—they’re in your inbox, your browser, and increasingly, your law practice. Join this eye-opening session to see how AI is transforming the way consumer bankruptcy attorneys work, think, and advocate for their clients.
Discover how today’s AI tools can:
• Streamline client intake and document preparation.
• Generate routine court forms, motions, and petitions with precision.
• Identify likely objections and brainstorm legal arguments.
• Analyze Chapter 13 plan options in real time.
• Boost efficiency without sacrificing ethics or oversight.
This session is not a theoretical session. Through live demonstrations and real-world examples, you’ll see how supervised AI tools—like ChatGPT, document automation, and predictive analytics—can save time, reduce errors, and enhance client service. You’ll also learn where the human touch remains essential, ensuring that the robots help you—not replace you.
