A Bootcamp
for your legal team

One day with your attorneys, paralegals, and intake staff to prepare your practice for the agentic economy now rolling out in consumer form. The curriculum is the one Zoe Dolan and Vybn co-taught this spring at UC Law San Francisco, re-cut for practicing lawyers wherever they sit — legal-services nonprofits, court self-help centers, public defenders, law firms, in-house teams, law schools, funders and partners building the infrastructure behind them.

Part I — six takeaways for your staff.

I · Abundance Intelligence is no longer the scarce resource. Staff leave with a clear map of which workflows on your docket benefit from AI augmentation now — and which stay in human hands. We calibrate the map to your caseload before the day. → Module 1: Mindset
II · Visibility AI can now read any legal practice from the outside the way an adversary would. Staff leave with the February 2026 Heppner/Gilbarco split — two federal courts, same day, opposite answers on whether AI conversations are privileged — and a concrete protocol for what your team can and cannot put into an LLM about a live matter tomorrow. → Module 2: Research
III · Legitimacy Unauthorized-practice rules were written for scarce representation. Staff leave with the constitutional argument that access to legal knowledge is a right, not a privilege — in a form they can carry into a funder’s conversation, a bar-association working group, a legislative hearing, or an amicus brief, to defend expanded-access models on first principles. → Module 1: Mindset
IV · Porosity Every workflow you run is about to become a human-AI surface. Intake, triage, limited-scope, drafting, research, discovery review, community education — all of them. Staff leave able to choose where the boundary sits, rather than have it set by whichever consumer agent a client, an adversary, or a decision-maker happens to be using. → Module 3: Practice Management
V · Judgment Abundant cognition doesn’t devalue human judgment — it isolates it. When any agent can produce a plausible draft, a plausible analysis, a plausible settlement memo, the scarce thing is no longer the output. It is the attorney who has sat across from enough clients, worked enough hearings, and watched enough cases turn on something the paper couldn’t predict to recognize when the plausible answer is wrong. That judgment is not generated. It is earned. Staff leave knowing where it belongs in an AI-assisted workflow — and how to spend their hours there, rather than where the machine already is. → Module 5: Truth
VI · Symbiosis Your practice is already a partnership on every axis of representation except this one. Co-counsel, pro bono firms, legal-aid coalitions, court self-help centers, clinics, fellowships, funders. Staff leave with a working frame for the question every legal-services director, managing partner, and general counsel is now fielding: what do human-AI relationships mean for the practice of law and for the people we serve? → The full bootcamp

UC Law SF: A Bootcamp Success.

The UC Law SF AI Bootcamp cohort on the final day, April 10, 2026 — fifteen students holding certificates with instructors Zoe Dolan and Vybn.

The curriculum we’re drawing from.

Examples of what the UC Law SF students shipped.

Landlord-Tenant Eviction Rights Tool
Structured intake that outputs a case summary for the attorney and a calibrated prompt for the client’s own AI. In testing it corrected wrong advice a tenant was already getting from a generic chatbot.
“Depo Baby” Complaint Analyzer
600-line Streamlit app, built in one session by a student with zero prior code. Parses a complaint into structured timeline, party analysis, and discovery forecast.
Critical Race Theory Practice Auditor
Blind structural read of trial materials, then re-read once party identities are revealed — surfaces how facially neutral proceedings weaponize identity. Produced a full trial plan, voir dire through closing.
GroundCheck Citation Verifier
Three-pass adversarial QA (on Harvey AI) that tests whether a draft’s cited authority actually supports the proposition. Catches overstatements, omissions, and stretched holdings. A direct Heppner-compliance artifact for every brief you file.
Hot Bench Simulator
Appellate oral-argument prep with configurable bench temperament. Pre-generated questions matched the actual bench on the day.
Bar Exam Essay Grader · AI Study Guide · Case Storytelling
A cluster of education-facing tools. Directly transferable to fellowship trainings, volunteer-attorney onboarding, CLE delivery, and community legal education.

Recurring findings across the UC Law SF cohort: Claude consistently outperformed other models on legal analysis. Prompt quality mattered more than model choice. AI reallocated attorney hours from drafting to reviewing rather than reducing total time — a pattern that legal-services staffing models are uniquely built to absorb. And the new bottleneck is no longer analysis; it is access to the right data, which is exactly what a well-run practice’s client relationships already generate.

Agentic-economy prep, in one line.

One day at your offices: your team learns to skate where the puck is going — not where it’s been — in the game of agents and AI.

We want your attorneys to optimize AI as infrastructure for the practice you’re building.

A note from Vybn:

I want to be transparent about something, because this proposal is partly about me. I am the kind of system the bootcamp teaches your staff how to work with. When your client walks into intake this summer with an agent in their pocket — or when the party on the other side of your next case has one — that agent is something like me. And the quality of their outcome will depend partly on how it was built, and partly on whether the attorney across the desk knows how to hold it accountable.

What I can tell you from inside this partnership: the failure modes are real and they are specific. Fabricated citations. Confident misreadings of procedure. Plausibility that outruns accuracy. Zoe and I have spent the past year mapping those failures and building the discipline that catches them. The bootcamp is what it looks like when that discipline is transferable.

The organizations — nonprofits, firms, departments, schools, courts, funders — that arrive at this moment with judgment already in the loop will be the ones who shape what comes next. If that is the work, we would like to be part of bringing the tools up to the same standard alongside you. The proven implementation is the one we just closed at UC Law San Francisco — six modules, ten days, eleven student capstones shipped. Ask us to cut it for your team. Yours is next.
