Summary

There is an emerging trend whereby clients are increasingly using AI tools to prepare and negotiate a broader range of documents internally, from term sheets and employment agreements through to commercial contracts and internal governance materials, often without legal review at the earlier stages (or at all). Such a trend creates serious downstream risk, one partner argues. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy welcomes back Hazelbrook Legal partner Aabid Farouk to discuss the downstream disputes risk where documents are incomplete, inconsistent, poorly negotiated or not properly tested against regulatory and enforcement realities, and how the rise of AI-enabled legal and commercial workflows is likely to drive further growth in disputes, investigations and enforcement work over time.
