Employers are using AI to recruit, hire, evaluate, and manage employees, and the law is racing to catch up. New state and local laws require bias audits, notices, and risk assessments, while plaintiffs are bringing discrimination claims against both employers and AI vendors. Do you know where the legal guardrails are and where the risks lie? This program gives employment counsel a practical framework for advising clients on the current rules, managing AI vendors, and building compliance programs that reduce litigation risk.

This program will give attorneys practical guidance on when a case is ripe for mediation and which mediation option best serves the client and the matter. The discussion will feature perspectives and insights from a distinguished panel spanning judicial neutrals, seasoned private mediators, and experienced practitioners. It will explore judicial and private mediation, including the benefits, limitations, costs, and strategic considerations of each. Panelists will discuss how attorneys can identify when a matter is ripe for mediation, counsel clients about the decision to mediate, evaluate the value of engaging a private third-party neutral, and approach mediation as part of an effective case strategy. The discussion will emphasize practical considerations attorneys can apply to their own matters, particularly in solo and small-firm practice.
