AI isn’t coming for the legal profession—it’s already reshaping it. While some people debate the ethics, attorneys are experimenting and clients are asking questions you can’t afford to dodge. AI for Litigators: Practical Tools to Transform Your Practice teaches you what to do when it shows up in your courtroom, your evidence file, your intake queue, and your P&L. 

Written by a former public defender and criminal defense attorney who has cross-examined the experts, picked the juries, and litigated the motions, AI for Litigators is the only practitioner book that takes you from prompt engineering through custom GPT-building to evidentiary challenges to sanctions avoidance to firm operations—all in one volume, with every technique verified in practice. 

The screenshots are real. The tools are real. The mistakes you will avoid are real. 

Practitioners and students will benefit from: 

• A clear, no-nonsense foundation—Understand what AI actually does (and what it doesn’t) in minutes
