AI is already inside most businesses, in tools individual teams chose and terms nobody read.
The legal questions are practical: what happens to the data you put in, whether it trains someone else’s model, who owns what comes out, what you have promised customers about how their data is handled, and what you would say if a client’s procurement team asked how your AI use is governed. The UK regulates AI through existing law, data protection first among it, and if you sell into the EU the AI Act reaches you in stages.
AI compliance is about using AI deliberately rather than accidentally.
We help with:
- an internal AI policy that people will actually follow;
- reviewing AI vendor terms, especially training on your data and confidentiality;
- data protection compliance for AI processing, including impact assessments;
- ownership and use of AI outputs, and the limits on that;
- customer-facing terms where AI forms part of your product; and
- answering client and investor questions about your AI governance.
We keep this practical rather than theoretical, as the point is confident use, not prohibition. Where you are not sure what is already in use across the business, the AI Audit is the place to start.
Our Approach
Legal advice that makes running and growing your business easier.
We start with your business, not the law.
Before we open a document, we want to understand what you are trying to do commercially. The legal answer is only useful if it serves that.
We get to the point.
You get a clear view of what matters and what does not, in plain English, with the real risks separated from the noise.
We give you an answer.
Not a menu of options and a shrug. We tell you what we would do, why, and where there is a genuine judgment call for you to make.
We stay available.
Whether you work with us on a single project or on a subscription, we are here for the follow-up question. We would always rather you asked.
