Prompting with Precision:
Building Prompting Fluency for In-House Attorneys
The integration of generative AI into workflows, particularly in document review, is reshaping how legal teams approach litigation, investigations, and other legal data intelligence use cases. As generative AI tools become more embedded, the way prompts are written has taken on new importance. Prompt design helps reduce ambiguity and improves the accuracy of generative AI outputs.
This on-demand session is designed for in-house attorneys and legal support staff who want to build foundational knowledge about prompting and prompt engineering. Rather than focusing on specific generative AI tools, the session will explore how writing prompts is a legal communication skill that draws from familiar strengths like clarity, issue framing, and analytical reasoning.
Learning goals:
- Understand the difference between prompting vs. prompt engineering.
- Learn how legal skills give you a unique edge in working with generative AI models.
- Understand the core principles of effective prompt writing – including clarity, structure, and tone.
- Explore a toolkit of prompting techniques – including zero-shot, chain-of-thought, role-based, contextual, and system prompting – and learn when and how to apply each method.
- Learn best practices for structuring prompts.
- Understand the legal implications of prompt usage, including the evolving debate around privilege, discoverability, and the work product doctrine in the context of generative AI-assisted legal work.
