Session

The Elephant in the Room: What AI is Changing Between Firms and Clients

The conversation that everyone is navigating will happen at Harvey FORUM with GCs and firms together, sharing an honest dialogue about how law is evolving and how collaboration is changing as a result. This isn't a theoretical debate about the future — it's a working conversation between the people living it, from every seat at the table. AI has created new revenue streams for firms. It's also made legal work more efficient. Who benefits from that efficiency, and how? Where and how does that impact the economics of the business, how clients work with firms, and how firms attract and develop talent? These are the questions we’ll seek to answer with GC and partners in conversation at FORUM. It’s time to talk about it and build the future together.

Session

Transforming Law Firm Talent Strategy

Law firms have been largely recruiting and retaining talent the same way for decades. But now you see firms experimenting with new programming, different types of partnerships, and innovative ways to attract, develop, and retain lawyers. This panel will discuss what AI means for the firm apprenticeship model, how mentorship and career growth expectations will change, and how organizations can plan for this change and evolve the firm model to innovate.

Join the lawyers, operators, and innovators shaping the future of legal work.
