Join Anchin (The Accounting Firm for Law Firms®) and Vistrada at our upcoming event aimed for decision makers on June 4th at 8:30 a.m., focused on how law firms can better align internal controls, cybersecurity, and the use of AI to increase efficiency while effectively managing risk.

As firms work more closely with banks, clients, and other third parties, expectations around internal controls and IT security are becoming increasingly interconnected. Security reviews today extend well beyond technical safeguards to evaluate the strength of underlying operational and financial controls. Gaps in these areas can expose firms to heightened risk, regulatory scrutiny, and operational inefficiencies.

At the same time, firms are exploring how generative AI and intelligent automation can enhance both operational and legal workflows. To realize these benefits safely and responsibly, AI must be implemented within a strong, well-governed control and security framework.

This session will bring these critical areas into one cohesive conversation, highlighting how they intersect and what firms should be doing now to stay secure, compliant, and competitive.

Topics will include:

  • How effective internal controls and operational processes drive productivity, cost savings, and financial accuracy
  • Common findings from security reviews and audits, and practical steps firms can take to address them
  • The growing role of generative AI in improving operational and legal efficiency
  • How to implement AI within a controlled, secure, and well-governed framework
  • Establishing guardrails, monitoring, and training to support responsible AI use
  • Creating a holistic strategy that aligns operations, technology, and risk management

Speakers will include:

  • Deborah L. de Vries, CPA, CGMA – Partner and Co-Leader of Anchin’s Law Firm Group (Moderator)
  • Anthony M. Bracco, CPA/CFF, CFE, CVA, CGMA – Partner and Leader of Anchin’s Litigation, Forensic and Valuation Services Groups
  • Gopal M. Burgher – Partner at BurgherGray LLP
  • Robert Reid – Partner & Managing Director of New York at Vistrada
  • Michelle A. Schaap – Member and Chair of Tech, Privacy and Data Innovations at Chiesa, Shahinian & Giantomasi

We hope you’ll join us for this timely discussion and leave with practical insights you can apply within your firm immediately.
