Legal IT Insider and Trellis hosted a live webinar on 4th February at 12pm ET/5pm GMT to discuss AI best practices in the wider litigation space. The webinar, which attracted a global audience of senior litigation leaders, offered valuable insights into Trellis’s own technology and some of the challenges and opportunities around leveraging generative AI to improve legal research, analysis, and drafting.
Trellis co-founder and CEO Nicole Clark talked about the genesis of Trellis, which came about when Clarke began using data in her own practice as a litigator, and began winning more cases.
