Why this matters
Mayer Brown is putting structure around firm-wide AI use. This is a high-significance signal for buyers benchmarking their panel.
Mayer Brown launched a mandatory, four-pillar GenAI curriculum (responsible use/governance, platform-specific technology training, practice-specific scenarios, leadership training) rolling out to nearly 1,800 lawyers globally throughout 2026. Training on risk, ethics, and human-in-the-loop practices is required before lawyers can access the firm's approved platforms, Harvey and Microsoft Copilot.
""Technology alone doesn't create client value. By training every lawyer in practice specific GenAI, we deliver deeper analysis, draw on more of the firm's experience, and free lawyers at all levels to focus on high value strategic counsel." — Evette Pastoriza Clift, Global Chief Information Officer, Mayer Brown"
