The Tech Savvy Lawyer #52: AI in Discovery Responses. Interview with Briefpoint Co-founder, Nathan Walter
Detail-oriented focus is a limited resource. So, when you automate the fundamental aspects of your legal writing, you can focus on the essential elements of your brief. In addition, empowering your support staff/associates to draft documents following your guidelines ensures that your feedback focuses on the most critical aspects of their work, as opposed to consistency, spelling, and formatting errors. In this episode of TSL.P Podcast, Nathan Walter joins us to discuss using artificial intelligence in your discovery responses.
Nathan Walter is the CEO and co-founder of Briefpoint, a company building an AI platform to facilitate end-to-end litigation automation.
