In the latest episode of The Mentor, Esq., Andrew J Smiley, Esq. breaks down the AI fundamentals every trial lawyer needs right now. Andrew lead a practical, no-hype session built for litigators who are tired of the noise and want to know what actually works. You’ll discover:

– How to tell the difference between the app, the model, and the database behind it
– Why prompt engineering matters and how to write prompts that get better results
– The confidentiality and privacy questions every lawyer should ask before using AI
– Using AI as a tool for depositions, chronologies, briefs, and trial prep – not as a replacement for lawyer judgment


Andrew also introduces Illuminate, his trial-lawyer-focused AI platform built from years of CLEs, podcast episodes, books, depositions, and outlines. He shows how a tuned, closed system can help litigators move from days of prep to hours, while still keeping the lawyer in control of the final work product. Perfect for trial lawyers, litigators, and legal professionals who want to stop guessing about AI and start using it with confidence.
