Fake Citations, Real Sanctions: What Every Litigator Needs to Know

Join us for a live look at one of the fastest-growing risks in litigation: AI-generated citations that don't exist.

Across the country, federal and state judges are issuing sanctions, fee awards, and bar referrals to lawyers who filed briefs with hallucinated cases. In this session, we'll break down what's happening in U.S. courtrooms, why it keeps happening, and what your firm can do about it. Learn how to use AI for research and drafting, without putting your license, your clients, or your reputation on the line.

Gain Insights On:

This session walks through what the cases reveal, what judges now expect from lawyers who use AI, and the policies and verification steps that keep your firm out of the headlines. You'll leave knowing where your exposure is, and what to fix first.

  • The pattern behind the headlines: What recent U.S. sanctions and fee disputes have in common, and where the process broke down each time.
  • Why AI hallucinates: What makes generative AI produce confident-sounding fake citations, and the difference between "AI-assisted" and "AI-generated."
  • The exposure firms face: Malpractice risk, sanctions exposure, client trust and reputational risk, and bar disciplinary trends.
  • What good governance looks like: Verification workflows, human-in-the-loop review requirements, documentation and audit trails, and staff training standards.
  • What separates legal AI from generic tools: How products designed for legal work with tools like citation-checking, source-grounding, or audit logs reduce this risk compared to general-purpose tools.

Save your spot. Find out what courts expect before your firm becomes the example.
