In his latest article published with Law360, “Attorneys Should Aid Clients’ AI Use While Safeguarding Privilege”, firm partner Joseph A. Rillotta explores the emerging intersection of artificial intelligence, attorney-client privilege, and white-collar criminal defense. He examines recent case law suggesting that client AI queries may not be shielded from discovery and considers whether the longstanding principles established in United States v. Kovel could provide a framework for safeguarding certain AI-assisted communications. Mr. Rillotta highlights the practical, ethical, and technological considerations that must be addressed as the legal profession continues to navigate the evolving role of AI in legal services.
