Matthew Chait, Managing Partner of Shutts & Bowen LLP’s West Palm Beach office, recently contributed to a Capital Analytics article discussing the positives and pitfalls of utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) in law firms.

The article, “Law Firms Navigate AI’s Pros and Pitfalls,” underscores how increasingly sophisticated AI tools are helping law firms boost efficiency by automating routine tasks and aiding in complex legal research—but they come with significant risks, notably the danger of “hallucinations,” where AI can generate false information or nonexistent case citations.

In the piece, Matt describes how Shutts began using AI across practice areas even before the technology became widespread, now integrating a specialized law‑firm AI platform throughout the firm. He emphasizes that AI, while still evolving, has become foundational to attorney practices, and that the firm continually refines its use to better serve clients as the technology advances.
