October 7: When AI Causes a Loss: Where Does the Risk Go? Emerging Liability, Coverage & Risk-Transfer Challenges in an AI-Driven World
When AI Causes a Loss: Where Does the Risk Go? Emerging Liability, Coverage & Risk-Transfer Challenges in an AI-Driven World
Description:
Cozen O’Connor invites you to attend a weekly webinar series exploring key issues impacting the health care and life sciences sector. Join us for an engaging series that will provide practical guidance and timely insights to help health care and life sciences companies stay ahead of emerging risks, regulatory developments, and industry trends.
Artificial intelligence is creating new liability exposures, but the more difficult questions happen after the loss occurs. What type of claim is it? Which policy responds? How is liability allocated? And who ultimately bears the risk? We are beginning to see concrete examples of AI-related claims emerge. Allegations involving AI-generated advice, AI-generated defamatory content, and autonomous systems associated with operational losses illustrate how a single AI-related event can raise multiple liability, coverage, and risk-transfer questions.
As these claims evolve, insurers are increasingly confronting losses that do not fit neatly within traditional insurance frameworks, often triggering multiple theories of liability, competing coverage positions, and contractual risk-transfer disputes that raise difficult questions regarding allocation and ultimate responsibility for the loss.
Join John Ewell and Julia Mann for a practical discussion of how AI-related losses move through insurance programs, indemnity provisions, vendor agreements, and litigation. The program will examine how insurers, MGAs, and other sophisticated risk-bearing enterprises are addressing coverage, allocation, and risk-transfer issues arising from losses that often do not fit neatly within traditional insurance frameworks.
Topics will include:
- Coverage and allocation challenges arising from AI-related losses.
- How a single AI event can trigger multiple liability theories and competing insurance coverage positions.
- Liability migration arising from AI-driven events.
- Contractual risk transfer, indemnification, and vendor risk allocation.
- AI-generated advice and professional liability exposures.
- Operational losses involving business interruption, cyber events, and data-related harm.
- Deepfakes, synthetic evidence, and evolving claims and litigation strategies.
- Emerging insurance and risk-transfer trends shaping the next generation of AI-related disputes.

October 7: The Psychology of Persuasion in Negotiation
Successful negotiators understand that outcomes are influenced as much by psychology as by legal arguments. Recognizing how people process information, assess risk, and respond to persuasive communication helps attorneys negotiate more effectively.
This program examines common cognitive biases, emotional influences, and communication dynamics that affect negotiations. Learn practical persuasion techniques that improve communication, strengthen relationships, and help parties move toward mutually beneficial resolutions.

October 7: Law Firm Cybersecurity Best Practices
An attorney’s decision to use a computer tablet, a cloud-based service, a smartphone, a public Wi-Fi network, or a free email account in the furtherance of delivering legal services is not, in and of itself, unethical or necessarily a poor business decision. The real concern is with what the attorneys who use such tools do or don’t do with them.
Portable devices, including backup drives, can be lost or stolen; rogue programs that capture banking passwords, encrypt your data, or steal your data can be unintentionally downloaded; and the list goes on. These breaches often result from common missteps, such as lax security procedures, falling victim to social engineering attacks, and simple ignorance of how a device works or what a program does.
This ethics program will discuss various cyberattack vectors and provide practical advice on managing breach risk.
A Sampling of Attendee Takeaways:
- An awareness of the numerous ways office computer networks can be breached.
- An explanation as to why a firm’s efforts to prevent a breach can’t be left to IT support alone.
- Identification of the basic steps one must take to try to prevent a network breach, coupled with an understanding of an attorney’s ethical obligations to take such steps.
- Knowledge of how wire fraud occurs to include practical tips on how to identify and avoid these scams.
- An understanding of backup best practices in light of ransomware threats.
