This guide is written for lawyers practicing law in the US.

This guide is intended for U.S.-based lawyers. As such, the guide is exclusively available to lawyers in the U.S. 

All lawyers should know how AI impacts their professional responsibilities and should learn about AI to stay competent and competitive. While this guide contains plenty of value for any US-based lawyer, it will likely be of the most utility to lawyers who have a say in whether their organization will adopt one or more AI tools in the near future. If no one in your organization has stepped up to evaluate AI, you could develop your AI competency and create a leadership opportunity. If you’re still not sure if this guide is for you, you can sign up to read the first chapter free at the top of this page.

This guide could be helpful to a paralegal with a particular interest in AI and the law, or one who will be involved in implementing AI technology at their workplace. If you’re still not sure if this guide is for you, you can sign up to read the first chapter for free at the top of this page.

Yes, you likely could figure it out yourself if you really wanted to devote the requisite time. But the fact is that I do not know any practicing lawyer who has the extra time to single-handedly pull together all of the information included in this guide.

This guide was created to make your life easier. It’s intended to get you up to speed on AI much faster than if you were researching and pulling all of this information together yourself in your spare time. I designed the guide to be exactly what I would have wanted if I was still practicing law and needed to develop AI competency.

Purchasers will have access to the guide as long as it exists on this website. At this point, I anticipate you will have access to the guide via this website for years to come. There are no current plans to remove it at a certain date, but there may come a point when this company shifts its focus, or enough time has passed that the utility of the guide has significantly diminished. Purchasers are guaranteed to have access to the guide for at least 6 months after purchase.

During your purchase you will be prompted to create a password. After your purchase you will be directed to your "My Library" page and you will be able to access the guide immediately. You will also receive a purchase confirmation email that you can use in the future to log back in. 

AI developments are hitting the news constantly. Book publishing timelines are lengthy, and books and PDFs, once published, are static until you publish a new edition. This format allows for more flexibility for updates.

No, this guide deals primarily with the necessary foundational steps for lawyers before they learn legal prompt engineering, if it is even necessary. This guide can help you develop your AI competency and help you explore whether there is an AI tool that is a good fit for your legal practice, with a step by step guide to evaluating and implementing AI tools, and a directory of over 200 AI tools created for the legal industry. This guide does provide a few resources as a starting point for learning more about legal prompt engineering, but you should know that many legal industry AI tools are automating the prompting process, and some legal industry AI tools do not even require prompting.

The guide will be reviewed and updated periodically. Sign up for our newsletter here to receive notifications when the guide is updated. 

We are in the process of exploring whether the guide could be accredited as a CLE. If you work in the CLE space and would be interested in exploring this, please reach out at [email protected]. 

Even though CLE credit is not available for the guide at the moment, the guide is still incredibly valuable as a tool to get up to speed more quickly on AI, reduce your risk, and explore using AI in your legal practice, including our directory of over 150 AI tools developed for the legal industry. As an added benefit, you can work through the guide at your own pace rather than sitting through lectures. 

Yes, I practiced law for over 12 years before leaving the practice of law in good standing and founding Good Journey Consulting. I worked at a medium-sized firm, then in-house, then started and ran my own firm with one partner. Now I’ve started Good Journey Consulting to help lawyers improve their law practices and make more time for the things that matter most to them. 

No, while I am evaluating AI tools for various use cases, this guide was written by me in its entirety and edited by my team throughout the process.
