Time: 2:00 – 3:00 PM ET
Part of the webinar series AI, Access to Justice & UPL: Shaping the Future of Legal Services.
In the final webinar in our series, we'll explore actionable reforms and future directions based on the IAALS report findings. This session bridges theoretical understanding with practical implementation strategies. In conjunction with a presentation of the IAALS report, we'll examine various reform models outlined in the report, with special emphasis on those most relevant to our series' themes of access to justice and legal innovation. Regulators will find particular value in our discussion of concrete opportunities for meaningful reform within existing frameworks. We'll also identify critical outstanding research questions that merit further investigation by the legal community. The session concludes with practical preparation for upcoming workshops, including specific guidance on developing prosecutorial frameworks that balance innovation with consumer protection. This final webinar serves as both a culmination of our series and a launching point for continued collaboration toward a more accessible legal system.
