The new generation of AI-related legal issues are inherently cross-disciplinary, implicating corporate law, intellectual property, data privacy, employment, corporate governance and regulatory compliance.
Unfortunately, attorneys advising clients on these matters in recent years have been challenged with the need to navigate across various niche sections of legal research databases in order to assemble the full picture of what they need. The reality is that these specific areas have historically been housed within content libraries that were structured around traditional “areas of practice” categories, so locating all relevant resources for a single AI-related matter required lawyers to navigate multiple practice areas.
LexisNexis Practical Guidance has eliminated this friction by launching a dedicated AI & Technology Practice Area, a single destination consolidating and expanding all AI and technology-related practitioner resources into one location.
The new AI & Technology Practice Area is organized around the tasks and matter types that lawyers encounter in practice, rather than around abstract doctrinal categories. This task-based architecture allows practitioners to begin with the nature of the work (e.g., drafting an agreement, assessing regulatory exposure, advising on governance, etc.) and navigate directly to relevant resources, without first determining which traditional practice area might contain them.
Content coverage spans the full lifecycle of AI and technology development, deployment and use. For example, transactional practitioners will find guidance on SaaS agreements, cloud computing contracts, AI development and licensing arrangements, outsourcing structures and data use provisions. These agreement types, which have grown central to commercial practice, are now organized as a coherent body of transactional guidance rather than dispersed across unrelated sections.
Regulatory and compliance practitioners will have access to an analysis of AI-specific legislation alongside assessment of how existing legal frameworks apply to novel technology contexts, guidance that is particularly valuable where statutory or regulatory coverage remains unsettled.
The practice area also includes dedicated coverage of M&A and investment transactions involving AI-driven businesses, AI-related litigation — encompassing claims, discovery, evidentiary issues, and emerging trends — and a section on Technology in the Practice of Law. This area specifically addresses professional responsibility obligations, court rules governing AI use in proceedings and law department policies, providing guidance relevant to attorneys managing their own practices as well as advising clients.
The new AI & Technology Practice Area from LexisNexis Practical Guidance provides legal professionals with timely insights in the form of task-ready, practice-specific guidance.
The AI & Technology Practice Area is available within standalone Practical Guidance and Practical Guidance on Lexis+ and Lexis+ with Protégé.
LexisNexis Practical Guidance provides access to a wide range of resources — from templates and checklists to practice notes and authoritative analysis — that help lawyers develop the critical knowledge needed to accomplish the most complex tasks, including those outside of their primary areas of expertise.
