Each topic page aggregates the cases, court orders, state bar guidance, and templates that apply to a single governance theme. Use these hubs as a starting point when researching a specific question across the site.

• AI Disclosure Requirements: When and how attorneys must disclose AI use in court filings. Court orders, state bar opinions, and the templates that document compliance.
• AI Hallucinated Citations: When a large language model fabricates a case, statute, or quotation that does not exist, an attorney who files it without verification is exposed to sanctions, disqualification, and bar discipline. The most-litigated AI failure mode in legal practice.
• Billing for AI Work: ABA Model Rule 1.5 and the state opinions on billing for AI-assisted legal work. Hourly billing, flat-fee adjustments, expense pass-through, and informed-client consent.
• Supervised AI Use: ABA Model Rule 5.1, Rule 5.3, and the state opinions that translate them into firm-side duties to supervise AI tools and the people using them.
