Trust but Verify: Validating AI Workflows in eDiscovery

Tuesday, August 25 • 10:30 AM

As Generative AI (GenAI) becomes a standard component of the ediscovery lifecycle in 2026, the primary challenge has evolved from "How do we use this?" to "How do we prove it worked and scale it responsibly?". This session bridges the gap between technical execution and strategic governance. We will move beyond the "black box" approach to explore how legal organizations can transform their workflows by elevating data, information strategy, and human capability into strategic assets in a defensible, scalable, and repeatable manner.

Masterclass:
Beyond the Burnout: Designing a Fulfilling Ediscovery Career in the Age of AI

Tuesday, August 25 • 3:30 PM

Location: Tennessee Ballroom DE

What does a fulfilling career in ediscovery actually look like, and how do you build one when the industry is changing faster than ever? This session tackles the questions many discovery professionals are thinking but few are saying out loud: Why does this work feel so exhausting? What happens to my role as automation expands? And how do I stop just surviving deadlines and start actually growing? Through honest panel discussion and real-world stories, we'll explore the human cost of the discovery grind, reframe automation as a career opportunity rather than a threat, and chart a path toward work that leverages your expertise, judgment, and creativity–the things no algorithm can replace.

Document Review Strategy Playbook: Mastering the AI + Human Partnership

Thursday, August 27 • 3:30 PM

In 2026, the hallmark of a successful legal team is the ability to seamlessly integrate early technology-driven triage, focused human judgment, and Generative AI (GenAI) into a single, cohesive workflow. This session provides a field-tested playbook for legal operations, litigation support managers, and discovery counsel to architect reviews that are not only faster but legally unassailable. How can legal teams determine which review tasks must stay in human hands and which can safely migrate to GenAI without sacrificing quality, privilege protection, or defensibility? This session will answer that question, with clear, field-tested frameworks for integrating GenAI responsibly into document review workflows. Attendees will explore the review ecosystem, moving from broad data reduction to high-stakes deposition prep.
