Storytelling in the legal world: Obsolete or still relevant?

Leave a reply

ENGLISH FOR LAWYERS: Storytelling in the legal world

Today, I’ve been thinking about the role of storytelling in the legal world.

With AI becoming more present in how we write, research, and communicate, it’s easy to focus on speed and efficiency. But in my experience, the real difference still comes from something very human: the ability to explain an idea clearly and make it matter to the person reading or listening.

In legal and business communication, facts are important. Precision is essential. But facts alone do not always connect. People remember stories, structure, and clarity. They remember how something made them feel and whether it helped them understand a complex issue more easily.

That is why I believe storytelling is not just a nice skill to have. It is a practical one.

Whether I am writing, teaching, or working on content strategy, I keep coming back to the same idea: if people cannot follow your message, they cannot value it fully. AI can help us draft faster, but it cannot replace judgment, tone, or a genuine understanding of the audience.

Not storytelling in a dramatic sense, but in the simple, practical sense of helping people understand what’s going on, why it matters, and what they should take away from it.

For me, that’s where the real value is — combining the efficiency of AI with the clarity and judgment that only people can bring.

Because at the end of the day, communication is not just about producing text. It’s about being understood.

ENGLISH FOR LAWYERS: Sullivan & Cromwell Apologizes for AI-Generated Errors in Filing

Leave a reply

Elite Wall Street law firm Sullivan & Cromwell apologized to a federal bankruptcy judge after an emergency court filing contained inaccurate citations and other errors produced by artificial intelligence. Partner Andrew Dietderich told Judge Martin Glenn that the firm’s internal AI policies and secondary review process were not followed, and a rival firm, Boies Schiller Flexner, flagged the mistakes. Sullivan & Cromwell filed a corrected motion and said it is evaluating enhancements to training and review protocols. The incident underscores a growing pattern of AI “hallucinations” appearing in legal filings and the operational and ethical risks of unvetted AI usage in high-stakes workflows.

Sullivan & Cromwell notified U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Martin Glenn that an emergency filing in the Prince Global Holdings Chapter 15 case contained inaccurate citations and other errors described as AI “hallucinations.” In an April 18 letter, partner Andrew Dietderich apologized, saying firm policies governing AI use were not followed and the secondary review process failed to catch the fabricated or misquoted authorities. Rival counsel at Boies Schiller Flexner identified the errors, prompting a corrected filing and direct apologies to opposing counsel.

The firm characterized the problem as instances where AI generated non-existent case citations, misquoted authorities, and produced incorrect article titles and numbers. The corrected submission contained a redline showing entire sentences and citation strings replaced or removed.

This is a concrete example of downstream risk when generative models are used as research or drafting assistants without rigorous validation. Legal citations are high-integrity artifacts: a fabricated case citation is not a harmless stylistic error, it is a factual inaccuracy that can mislead courts, trigger sanctions, and damage firm reputation. The incident illustrates two failure modes relevant across industries: model hallucination producing plausible but false strings, and process failure where human reviewers rely on AI outputs without sufficient cross-checks.

Sullivan & Cromwell LLP is an American multinational white shoe law firm headquartered in New York City. It was founded in 1879 by Algernon Sydney Sullivan and William Nelson Cromwell and is currently one of the most profitable law firms in the world.

ENGLISH FOR LAWYERS: Your AI Chats Can Be Used Against You in Court

1 Reply

Two months ago, a federal judge in New York ruled that prosecutors could use a fraud defendant’s private conversations with Anthropic’s Claude as evidence. Now, the legal industry is still processing what that means—and it is doing so fast.

💥 Key Takeaways

➡️ A federal court ruled AI chats lack legal privilege because Claude holds no law license.

➡️ In other words, Claude and ChatGPT are not licensed attorneys, meaning that legal professional privilege does not apply in this context.

The confidentiality of communications between a client and their lawyer is protected by the principle of professional secrecy (also known as legal professional privilege). The principle exists in order to facilitate and ensure open and honest communication when a client is seeking legal advice.

➡️ Now, big law firms are adapting their strategies accordingly, even though legal views are conflicting, as they seek to navigate the implications of the court ruling on the use of AI in legal communications.

More than a dozen major U.S. law firms have since issued client advisories warning that conversations with AI chatbots like Claude and ChatGPT carry no legal protection when they touch legal matters. Some have gone further: firms are now embedding that warning directly into the contracts they sign with clients before representation even begins.

➡️ OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has issued a serious warning for all those using ChatGPT for therapy or counsel.

➡️ People are increasingly turning to chatbots to talk through personal problems, but Altman warned that OpenAI cannot block those conversations from being used as evidence.

“So, if you go talk to ChatGPT about your most sensitive stuff and then there’s like a lawsuit or whatever, like we could be required to produce that. And I think that’s very screwed up,” Altman said in response to a question around the legal framework for AI.
