Our AI lawyers’ experience

AI continues to dominate the headlines and attract new legislation around the world. For businesses, AI is both a massive opportunity and (for most) a new legal frontier.

Our AI lawyers combine a broad range of experience over a number of legal disciplines together with an in-depth technical understanding of how AI works in practice. This equips us with the skills to be at the cutting edge of AI law – assisting the spectrum of our client base from startups to established SMEs.

Our experience covers AI developers (using their own models or adapted models), organisations using third-party AI internally and clients that have highly valuable datasets that their customers want to embed in their own models. Our AI lawyers can come at the legal issues around AI from all angles to negotiate the contractual, intellectual property and data protection concerns that our clients have.

AI lawyers’ services

EM Law can provide clients using or interacting with AI tools with assistance across any aspect of their business, but we most frequently provide the following AI related services:

  • Drafting and negotiating software development agreements.
  • Drafting and negotiating AI-as-a-service (AIaaS) contracts, including where AI tools are integrated with third-party software using APIs.
  • Providing data licencing and access rights advice, including in respect of securing rights to train models on public and private datasets.
  • Providing output data ownership advice.
  • Assisting with UK GDPR complianceDPIAs, LIAs and related policies in the context of AI.
  • Developing acceptable use guidelines and policies in the context of generative AI.
  • Providing content moderation of input and output data advice.
