Counsel & Code: AI for lawyers and the whole legal office

A practical chat course for Australian law firms: lawyers, practice managers and support staff. Five short lessons on which AI use cases are worth it, how to choose tools, an AI policy with proper supervision, what the courts now require, verifying citations, confidentiality and privilege, and a 30-day rollout with a person in the loop.

What you'll cover

Use cases ranked by value and riskWhere AI helps a legal office most, and where it's riskiest.
Choosing tools with a checklistLegal-specific vs general tools, and what to ask vendors.
AI policy and supervisionApproved tools, conduct rules, supervision and billing.
Court rules and verifying citationsPractice notes in NSW, the Federal Court, Queensland and Victoria.
Confidentiality, privilege and a 30-day rolloutProtecting privilege, then a cautious month-one plan.

An Aideveloper course. Not legal advice or ethics advice: your obligations come from your conduct rules, your law society or regulator, and the courts you appear in, so check their current guidance. Tools are discussed neutrally from vendors' own Australian pages; we're not affiliated with any of them. Grok Bot appears once as an admin-routine example. The lessons are scripted and run in your browser, and we only receive the details you enter before lesson 1.
