The General Counsel's Dilemma

Adoption is racing ahead of governance. Regulators and boards now expect the GC to evidence that AI use is controlled — not simply assert it.

Pressure to Adopt

  • CEO & board demand AI-driven efficiency
  • Matter volumes rising, budgets flat
  • Competitors already deploying AI
  • Talent expects modern tooling
VS

Duty to Protect

  • Privilege waived by a single careless prompt
  • Hallucinated authorities have sanctioned lawyers
  • GDPR, EU AI Act & SRA duties apply personally
  • No independent evidence tools are safe

Saber Labs resolves this: adopt fast — but on an assured, evidenced footing.

Five Pillars of Legal AI Assurance

The Legal AI Assurance Framework (LAAF) takes you from policy to proof — turning assertions into independently verified evidence.

01

Govern

Risk framework, use-case tiering, accountable ownership and intake governance across all AI tools.

02

Secure

Data security architecture across Claude, OpenAI, Copilot, Gemini, Harvey — classification gates, ZDR, encryption, ethical walls.

03

Control

Acceptable-use policies, human-in-the-loop checkpoints by tier, verification discipline and incident response playbooks.

04

Assure Differentiator

Independent testing, hallucination & privilege-leakage benchmarking, and Bronze/Silver/Gold certification. Policies are assertions — this is proof.

05

Sustain

AI Governance Committee, monthly monitoring, annual re-certification and triggered re-tests on model or vendor changes.

Six Risk Domains. ~30 Named Risks.

Every engagement maps your AI estate across the six legal-AI risk domains that matter — each with a definition, legal-context consequence, and mapped controls.

Confidentiality & Privilege

Client data leakage; privilege waiver via uncontrolled tools or prompts.

Accuracy & Hallucination

Fabricated citations, wrong law, silent errors reaching clients or courts.

Data Protection

GDPR lawful basis, international transfers, retention, special-category data.

Regulatory & Professional Duty

EU AI Act, SRA conduct rules, sector regulation, competence duties.

Operational & Vendor

Model changes, sub-processors, lock-in, availability, supply-chain risk.

Ethical & Reputational

Bias, transparency to clients, disclosure of AI use, public trust.

Fixed-Fee. No Day Rates. No Scope Creep.
