🚨 The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) upholds a crucial mission, as articulated by former President Abraham Lincoln in his Second Inaugural Address: a commitment to care for all who have served in the nation's military, including their families, caregivers, and survivors. This enduring promise sets the foundation for the VA's efforts to provide comprehensive support to veterans and their communities. ⚡ Integral to this mission is the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which serves as a cornerstone for promoting transparency, accountability, and accessibility of information within the VA. ⚡ By ensuring that information is readily available to veterans and their families, FOIA empowers them to access the support and resources they need to navigate various aspects of their lives. At the forefront of this complex operation is Michael Sarich, the Director of #FOIA at the VA. Last year alone, the VA handled a staggering 80,000 FOIA inquiries, underscoring the immense demand for accessible information on everything from applying for benefits, tracking healthcare history, accessing military service information and much more. In a recent conversation with Everlaw, Michael Sarich delved into the intricacies of managing high-volume FOIA requests and shared innovative strategies employed by the VA to address this formidable task. Through his transformative leadership, the VA aims to streamline FOIA operations and better serve the needs of veterans and their families. 👉 Read more in ‘Striking the Balance: Leveraging Technology, Training, and Talent in FOIA Management - A Conversation with Michael Sarich, Director of FOIA at the Department of Veterans Affairs,’ by Gina Jurva > https://lnkd.in/gn4nz3jh #VeteransAffairs #FOIA #LegalTech

🚨 3 #GenAI #Use #Cases for Corporate In-House Teams! Half of corporate legal departments at Fortune 1000 companies are already using GenAI for legal matters. What’s more, in-house legal professionals are optimistic about leveraging GenAI to bring more work in-house and lower costs. In our latest blog post for the corporate segment, 3 GenAI Use Cases for Corporate In-House Teams, we look at the ways that Everlaw AI Assistant promises to supercharge in-house legal professionals’ productivity in the world of ediscovery. With features such as batch summarization, coding suggestions, and writing assistant, in-house teams can cut the time it takes to handle key steps in matters like litigation, internal investigations, and third-party subpoena response. Takeaways: ⚡ Litigation: With AI-powered review and writing assistance, in-house professionals discover what’s relevant to a case far faster, enabling them to manage risk and outside counsel costs proactively. ⚡ Internal Investigations: Sentiment analysis provides insight into the attitudes of different parties and the underlying tone of their communications, enabling legal professionals to uncover potential misconduct faster. ⚡ Subpoenas: If a paralegal can manage a subpoena response in 4 hours instead of 12 using AI batch summaries to determine responsiveness, that paralegal can handle more subpoenas in a year – or focus on other important work. 👉 Read more > https://lnkd.in/gX4aFpkb #Ediscovery #LegalTech #EverlawAIAssistant

✨ Amazing contributions to Everlaw! Thank you, Shannon Ortega and Jonathan Revelo, PSM! ✨ #LifeAtEverlaw
As my term as Co-chair of Everlaw's Latinx ERG comes to an end it fills me with immense pride for what we've achieved this past year. From our impactful kick-off newsletter for Latin/Hispanic Heritage Month to our creative Dia de Los Muertos event, where we decorated frames for Everlaw's first ofrenda, we've made significant strides in fostering community and cultural celebration. Throughout the year, we've stood together through both triumphs and challenges, supporting each other and extending our impact. It was especially fulfilling to award our first "LatinXcellence" scholarships to two deserving high school students and collaborate with Everlaw's Disability ERG on a cross-event at the Alameda County Food Bank. None of this would have been possible without the dedication of my incredible co-chair, Jon. While Jonathan Revelo, PSM is and I have decided not to run for another term as co-chairs, I have full confidence that the ERG is in capable hands and am excited to continue supporting its initiatives as a member. Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey. Together, we've made a lasting impact, and I look forward to our continued success and growth. #LatinxERG #CommunityBuilding #DiversityandInclusion #EmployeeResourceGroups

🚨 A real-world example of implementing measures that confirm #GenAI is trustworthy. IDC’s Ryan O'Leary, Esq.: “Everlaw is an eDiscovery software vendor that helps people collect and review evidence, mainly for litigation. The company has been at the forefront of AI in the legal space and makes its principles clear as day. Everlaw has also baked auditability into its software. Anytime GenAI creates an output, the end user can easily see the documentation that the model relied on.” “This creates extremely transparent AI outputs and helps limit ‘hallucinations’. The company also evaluates all its third-party partners for security and privacy within their models. Everlaw’s generative AI principles focus on control, confidence, transparency, privacy, and security. You do not need to focus on much more than that.” Read more in CIO, “Ethics of generative AI: To be innovative, you must first be trustworthy” > https://lnkd.in/gF3dyDfU #AI #GenAI #LegalTech
