The PBC Legal AI Shield: Secure Professional Immunity in 5 Business Days.
Chief Judge Glenn D. Kelley's April 2026 order names ChatGPT, Claude AI, and Harvey AI by name. Attorneys who file without disclosure face Section 6a sanctions: striking of filings, monetary sanctions, contempt proceedings, and Florida Bar referral.
Matt Almassian engineers the internal workflows and governance structures that prevent that. He comes to your firm. Five deliverables in five business days. $2,500 flat fee.
In 15 minutes, you will know exactly where your firm stands under AO No. 2.109-4/26.
Three Provisions.
Zero Ambiguity.
Administrative Order No. 2.109-4/26 is not an advisory. Below is what the order says, and what it means for your firm's filings starting today.
"Any attorney or self-represented litigant who uses any generative artificial intelligence tool in the preparation of a pleading, motion, memorandum, response, proposed order or other court document, must disclose such use on the face of the filing. If the use of AI creates any new content, it must be disclosed."
If your associates used ChatGPT, Claude AI, or Harvey AI to draft any portion of a filing, that use must appear on the face of the document. Westlaw Precision and LexisNexis are exempt. Generative AI is not.
"Generative artificial intelligence (name of generative AI program used) was used in the preparation of this filing. The undersigned certifies that all factual assertions, legal authority, and citations have been independently reviewed and verified for accuracy and accepts full responsibility for the contents of this filing."
The certification must name the specific tool and appear at the conclusion of the filing or immediately above the signature block. A verbal assurance does not satisfy this. The certification lives in the document.
"The failure to comply with this Administrative Order may result in sanctions, including but not limited to striking the filing; denial of the requested relief; monetary sanctions; contempt proceedings; referral to The Florida Bar or other appropriate authority; and any other sanction deemed appropriate by the Court."
A single non-compliant filing can strike your motion, cost your client their relief, and initiate a Florida Bar referral. The court may also raise a deficiency sua sponte. Opposing counsel does not need to catch it first.
A Palm Beach County Firm Just Did This.
Here Is What Happened.
AI Governance and Compliance Audit. Palm Beach County Law Firm (Confidential).
A 15-attorney Palm Beach County firm was using AI tools for research and drafting with no written governance policy and no verification workflow. When AO No. 2.109-4/26 was issued in April 2026, the managing partner recognized the Section 6a exposure immediately. The firm needed to be compliant before their next filing cycle.
The full Compliance Shield Audit: AI usage inventory, compliance gap report, a ready-to-adopt governance policy, a human-in-the-loop verification workflow, and a 60-minute on-site debrief. All five deliverables in 5 business days.
The firm adopted the governance policy immediately and moved to a monthly retainer. AI is now used strategically across research, drafting, and client intake, with a compliant documentation record for every filing.
Compliance with AO No. 2.109-4/26 achieved after audit delivery
Time savings across research and drafting workflows post-training
From engagement start to full compliance documentation in hand
AI use cases scaled during subsequent retainer engagement
AI Workflow Engineering in a Law Firm Is Not New Work for Us.
Before auditing PBC firms for compliance, we built full AI workflow systems for legal practices. Legal Knights, a Beverly Hills firm handling workers' comp, personal injury, and employment law, hired AI-Powered Consulting to design and implement AI across every major workflow.
Reduction in total staff time across all legal workflows
Hours saved per year with no additional hires required
Revenue increase in 6 months from faster case throughput
Client: Legal Knights Law Firm, Beverly Hills, CA. Workers' Comp, Personal Injury, Employment Law. 2 attorneys, 7 staff.
The Sanctions Are Specific.
The Risk Is Immediate.
The order does not create a grace period. It does not require prior warning. Every filing your firm submits right now is either compliant or it is not.
Section 6a authorizes the court to strike a non-compliant filing and deny the relief it requested. Your client does not just lose a motion. Your client loses the case that motion was built to win. That is not a technicality. That is malpractice exposure.
The court may impose monetary sanctions against the firm and initiate contempt proceedings. Unlike a fee dispute, sanctions follow the attorney, appear in the public record, and carry consequences that extend well beyond the matter at hand.
Section 6a explicitly provides for referral to The Florida Bar. A Bar inquiry is not a private matter. It affects your firm's standing in every engagement and every county where your attorneys practice.
The order expressly authorizes the court to address AI disclosure deficiencies on its own motion. You do not need an alert opposing counsel to trigger this. A judge reviewing the filing can raise the issue independently.

Every deliverable is ready to use inside your firm from day one. Nothing is theoretical. Everything is PBC-specific and drafted for immediate adoption.
A complete map of every generative AI tool in use across your firm, how each is being used, and how each use maps against the specific requirements of AO No. 2.109-4/26.
A written report identifying every area where your firm is currently exposed under the order. Gaps are ranked by priority and linked directly to the provision they implicate.
A ready-to-adopt firm-wide policy drafted in plain English. Written to satisfy the order's requirements, tailored to your firm's size and practice areas.
A step-by-step human-in-the-loop process your attorneys and paralegals follow before filing any document that involved generative AI.
