Turning Complexity into Advantage
Proskauer offers a dedicated international team of lawyers with unparalleled expertise in AI law, policy and practice, having advised extensively on AI matters long before the technology became a boardroom priority.
We regularly counsel both new entrants and established players in the AI market on the formulation and execution of key strategies, and on the management and mitigation of AI-specific risks. Our clients range from leading model developers and corporate end users to training data rightsholders and businesses whose vendors are integrating AI into existing services. We work daily with large language models, computer vision systems, categorization and prediction models, coding agents and other emerging AI technologies, giving us unmatched technical fluency.
We combine this technical excellence with deep cross-jurisdictional legal knowledge and practical experience, including structuring and negotiating complex AI licensing deals up to $200 million in value, conducting due diligence on frontier model developers, drafting dozens of highly calibrated AI policies and helping clients review and onboard hundreds of AI tools.
In a market increasingly populated by advisors claiming AI expertise without substantive experience, Proskauer offers authentic knowledge, practical experience and strategic guidance that genuinely set us apart and deliver tangible value to our clients.
We advise leading AI developers from early conceptual stages through deployment and ongoing operations. This work includes advising on training data procurement and licensing, retraining protocols, fairness and bias auditing, security measures, transparency and explainability requirements, human oversight frameworks and more.
Our team excels at guiding businesses in launching AI-driven products and services. We frequently help clients navigate regulatory challenges and design and negotiate customer contract suites tailored to AI-powered offerings, from enterprise SaaS tools to consumer-facing applications.
We support complex AI procurement and integration projects that require sophisticated technical and commercial understanding, and the crucial ability to mitigate risk without blocking value generation. When negotiating licenses with AI vendors, our experience on both the developer and user sides enables us to cite market standards with great effect, helping clients pursue cutting-edge solutions without undue exposure.
We provide practical guidance on navigating the increasingly complex international regulatory landscape. This includes assessing AI platforms under UK, US and European laws and related frameworks, advising on algorithmic transparency and governance, and developing compliance programs aligned with evolving global standards from the EU AI Act to sector-specific guidance and emerging codes of practice.
Our practice provides tailored risk assessments and strategic advice to manage AI-related risks effectively. We help organizations design responsible AI use, procurement and development guardrails, evaluate AI tools and features, and establish governance protocols that ensure compliance while supporting innovation, including enterprise risk frameworks for the latest generative and agentic AI offerings.
We advise on strategic investments involving AI-focused businesses. Our diligence work includes analysis of open-source model use, training data provenance, AI governance and security, IP rights in proprietary model weights and architectures, key upstream and downstream commercial contracts, and regulatory readiness — issues that demand both legal insight and technical understanding, and that increasingly determine the success of AI-driven transactions.
Our deep bench of trial lawyers includes professionals with engineering and science degrees, Ph.D.s and practical industry experience, giving us a decisive edge in complex AI‑related cases. Our experience spans the full spectrum of disputes, including patent, copyright and trademark litigation; privacy, data and cybersecurity matters; trade secret misappropriation; and antitrust and complex commercial and contractual disputes across every major forum. Our litigators are renowned for their ability to translate intricate technical and legal complexity into clear, decisive action and winning results.
AI Decoded cuts through the noise to deliver practical, commercially driven perspectives that help organizations move quickly, stay compliant and turn complexity into advantage.
