Sills Cummis Managing Partner Richard Epstein was featured in the Law360 Pulse article “NJ Law Firms Aim to Strike Balance in ‘Noisy’ Legal AI Scene,” discussing how the firm keeps excellent client service at the center of its approach to legal AI. “Our number one objective, as it always is, is to give quality to our clients,” Epstein said. He explained that the firm uses a range of closed-universe generative AI platforms, each with different strengths, and is comfortable with some overlap when a tool helps a lawyer give excellent service to the client. Epstein also emphasized that “AI is not a substitute for a lawyer’s experience, judgment, and industry and subject matter expertise.”
