An alumnus of Michigan State University, Cullen McKinney has for more than a decade guided TNMD – Tanoury, Nauts, McKinney & Dwaihy, PLLC, as a founding partner. Specialized in multiple areas of civil litigation such as medical malpractice law, Cullen McKinney is a member of Lawyers of Distinction.
Lawyers of Distinction helps legal professionals from across the U.S. and abroad to distinguish themselves in an increasingly competitive legal profession. Members of Lawyers of Distinction are selected based on a review and vetting process spearheaded by the selection committee. Lawyers of Distinction continuously educate their members on multiple issues including how they can benefit from artificial intelligence. Even though AI has inspired positive developments, some legal experts aren’t sure how the new technology will impact their careers.
Legal practitioners can reap multiple benefits from AI. For instance, AI can assist professionals to have an idea of the best litigation strategy that will yield good results both in court and with a particular judge. This makes it possible to craft powerful legal strategies. AI technologies such as specialized machine learning or natural language processing (NLP) can significantly cut down on hours or days of research.
AI enables legal experts to quickly go through huge volumes of documents in order to understand their context and incorporate them on a case. This is especially useful in cases with complex subjects such as compliance verification, lease extractions and due diligence. When time is reduced on certain activities, legal attorneys can focus on other important issues. When properly utilized, artificial intelligence has the potential to positively transform work procedures for legal professionals.
