- Hale Law uses CoCounsel Legal and Westlaw Advantage Deep Research to deliver faster, verifiable legal research. Hale Law operates in a client‑first practice where data security is the gatekeeper for any new technology. In this video, Patrick Hale, Managing Partner, explains that protecting client information was the number‑one requirement and a non‑starter if it couldn’t be guaranteed—especially in a market crowded with startup AI tools.
Once that security hurdle is cleared, Hale Law shifts to the next pressure point: efficiency. CoCounsel Legal helps the firm do more, faster, moving beyond one or two tasks per matter to a broader set of work in the same time window. Patrick describes deep AI research as a “huge game-changer,” expanding what lawyers can accomplish without compromising trust. The result is a platform choice that supports both responsible handling of client information and a step‑change in productivity.

Greenberg Traurig operates in a market where access to generalized AI tools is no longer a differentiator—nearly everyone can reach the same public models.

CoCounsel Legal supports that differentiation by helping teams go beyond generic outputs in two ways. First, Matthew points to the opportunity in unstructured internal data—transforming the information organizations already have into usable knowledge and insight when it’s integrated with AI tools.

- Florida law firm Cole, Scott & Kissane uses CoCounsel Legal to address the trust questions that accompany legal AI adoption—especially about confidentiality, privacy, and privilege. In this video, the firm’s general counsel, Steven Hicks-Safra, explains that while clients are a driving force behind AI adoption, early skepticism often centers on how sensitive information is handled, where data is stored, and who has access to it.
CoCounsel supports responsible adoption by making those safeguards clear and defensible. Steven explains that information uploaded into CoCounsel remains isolated to the firm, is accessible only by firm users, and is not used to train AI models—allowing attorneys to address client concerns with specificity and confidence. Paired with clear communication and informed consent, these protections enable the firm to move innovation forward while preserving the client trust that underpins its legal practice.

During a panel on the real-world risks and rewards of deploying AI, Joel Hron, our CTO, shared a grounded perspective on where AI stands today and what it will take to earn trust at scale.
Two key takeaways from the discussion:
AI is evolving into an operating system, which raises the bar for accountability. As systems become more agentic and goal-oriented, success depends less on raw capability and more on context, constraints, and guardrails. Powerful AI must be intentionally designed to operate reliably in high-stakes professional workflows.
Responsible deployment is about balance, not blind trust or hesitation. Organizations face risk when they either move too fast without oversight or fail to invest in learning how to use AI effectively. The path forward requires ...

They operate in some of the highest‑stakes legal work imaginable—wrongful conviction investigations where time can mean decades of lost freedom.

Beyond investigations, CoCounsel also supports drafting needs such as grant applications and case stori...

- Description
- What if rivers, forests, and even individual trees had their own legal rights? In this thought-provoking episode, host Becky Annison speaks with Paul Powlesland – barrister, founder of Lawyers for Nature, and leading advocate for the legal rights of nature – about a revolutionary movement transforming our relationship with the natural world.
Paul explains how the "rights of nature" movement goes beyond passing new laws, aiming to fundamentally reshape how we view and protect the environment. Drawing on global examples and his own front-line experiences, Paul shows how granting legal rights to nature is already making a real difference. He also shares how lawyers from any field, not just environmental specialists, can become "guardians of nature", and why rights on paper must be matched by real enforcement. Paul makes the case for legal personhood for rivers, forests, and landscapes to empower communities and hold polluters accountable.
