AI for Lawyers: A Beginner’s Guide
Artificial Intelligence is already changing how lawyers work – whether we like it or not. But if you’re unsure where to start, you’re not alone. I’ve put together a live, practical webinar designed specifically for lawyers who want to understand what AI can (and can’t) do for them.
This isn’t tech waffle or future-gazing. It’s a plain English, no-nonsense introduction to using AI tools in real legal work.
What You’ll Learn
In under an hour, I’ll walk you through:
-
What we actually mean by AI, Generative AI (Gen AI), and Large Language Models (LLMs)
-
Which AI tools are available and which ones are worth knowing about
-
-
Reviewing and summarising documents
-
Writing emails and reports
-
Analysing legal judgments
-
Checking legal knowledge
-
Drafting documents (with caveats!)
-
Real-life examples of how lawyers are already using AI:
-
-
How to write better prompts to get useful output from AI tools
Who It’s For
This session is for any lawyer (qualified or not yet) who:
-
Feels behind on AI but wants to catch up quickly
-
Wants to see real examples, not just theory
-
Has heard of ChatGPT or Copilot but isn’t using them yet (or using them fully)
-
Would like to understand how to safely and sensibly bring AI into their work
- Lawyers who’d like to save maybe 30-60 minutes a day by using AI.
You do not need any prior knowledge of AI or technology. Just an open mind.
Why It Matters
AI won’t replace lawyers. But lawyers who know how to use AI are already ahead of the game. This session is about helping you:
-
Save time
-
Improve efficiency
-
Reduce the boring bits of lawyering
And more than that, it’s about staying relevant.
About Me
I’m Steven Mather, a business law solicitor with 17+ years of experience advising businesses, and I also sit on the Council of the Law Society of England and Wales. I’ve been using AI tools in my own practice and testing their limits so that you don’t have to!
This session is practical, lawyer-friendly, and, frankly – a bit of a no-brainer.

Cost: £100 + VAT – PER FIRM
The price is simple. It’s per registered email. You’ll get a zoom link. You can have 30+ people from your firm in the room around one screen watching. It’s not per person.
And let’s be honest – if it saves you just 30 minutes a day (and it probably will), that’s around £125 a day saved based on a £250 hourly rate. You’ll make the cost back by lunchtime the next day.

I will send the link out for the call around 48 hours before the session – I’ve not had time to automate it all (I’m a busy lawyer, after all), so I’m doing that bit manually.
PS If you would like to attend but can’t make this date and time, then just email me at steven@stevenmather.co.uk, and I’ll let you know when the next one will be.
