As AI use and development expands, so do the relevant legal concerns and regulatory requirements in areas such as product development, procurement, human resources, compliance, governance, and IT systems.

We provide advice on the development of legal and regulatory framework for AI, covering:

• Data protection and use, including data privacy regulations and processes and offering advice on cyber-related matters.
• Intellectual property protection and enforcement, encompassing patent prosecution, protection, enforcement and defence.
• Regulatory guidance, including advice on compliance with changing and sometimes conflicting regulations.
• Corporate governance, policy, and framework development, including the creation of AI governance policies, implementation frameworks, oversight procedures for automated decision-making, drafting explanations, establishing review and oversight processes, and other internal controls.
• AI risk and impact assessments, identifying possible legal liabilities associated with AI deployment (such as compliance issues and ethical considerations), and evaluating and applying risk mitigation measures.
• Procurement of third-party AI products and services, including reviewing restrictions on use, contract terms, allocation of intellectual property rights, data usage in and rights related to AI outputs.
