Practical AI legal counsel for businesses and entrepreneurs
Artificial intelligence is changing how businesses develop products, negotiate contracts, protect intellectual property, manage employees and serve customers. It also creates new legal and business risks.
I provide practical legal advice to businesses, entrepreneurs and investors dealing with artificial intelligence and emerging technology. Based in Montclair, New Jersey, he advises clients on the contracts, policies, transactions and legal issues that arise from using, developing or commercializing AI.
AI Legal Services
AI contracts and transactions
AI increasingly appears in software licenses, vendor agreements, SaaS contracts, employment agreements and other business transactions. I help businesses identify and address provisions concerning AI-generated content, data rights, intellectual property, confidentiality, security, indemnification, liability and the use of third-party AI systems.
AI policies for businesses
Businesses need practical rules governing how employees and contractors use AI. I help develop AI policies addressing appropriate uses of AI, confidential and proprietary information, client information, verification of AI-generated work, intellectual property, security and employee responsibilities.
AI and privacy
AI systems can involve substantial amounts of personal, confidential or proprietary information. I advise businesses concerning contractual, privacy and confidentiality issues associated with collecting, sharing and using information with AI tools.
AI for startups and emerging companies
AI startups face many of the same legal challenges as other emerging companies, along with issues specific to artificial intelligence. I provide counsel concerning entity structure, financing, contracts, intellectual property, licensing, commercialization and other legal matters as an AI business develops.
AI due diligence
Investors, acquirers and businesses considering an AI company or AI-enabled technology need to understand what they are actually acquiring or investing in. I help identify legal and contractual issues involving intellectual property, data, technology rights, licenses, contracts and regulatory risk.
AI Law and New Jersey
New Jersey lawyers and businesses are increasingly confronting the legal implications of artificial intelligence. The New Jersey Supreme Court has issued guidance concerning the responsible use of AI by lawyers, emphasizing that lawyers remain responsible for their professional obligations when using AI.
My practice includes following these developments and translating them into practical advice for businesses and professionals.
AI and the Law: Publications and Commentary
I write regularly about artificial intelligence, technology and the law, with particular attention to issues affecting New Jersey businesses and lawyers.
Recent topics include artificial intelligence and professional responsibility, AI integration into legal practice, AI-powered contract analysis in M&A and the legal risks associated with AI-generated material.
Why Work With an AI Business Lawyer?
AI issues rarely exist in isolation. A business considering an AI system may simultaneously have questions involving contracts, intellectual property, privacy, employment, financing, securities or corporate governance.
My practice is designed around that reality.
I have represented entrepreneurs, emerging companies and established businesses in transactions and business matters for decades, including work involving contracts, financing, securities, intellectual property, emerging technologies and mergers and acquisitions.
That experience allows me to approach AI not simply as a technology issue, but as a business and legal issue.
Serving New Jersey Businesses
Based in Montclair, New Jersey, I serve businesses and entrepreneurs throughout New Jersey, including clients in Essex County and the surrounding New York metropolitan area.
If your business is developing AI, purchasing AI technology, incorporating AI into its operations or simply trying to understand its legal risks, I can help you identify the issues that matter and develop a practical approach to addressing them.
