The Risks and Benefits of AI-Assisted Divorce

Getting divorced is a daunting process. Some fear hiring an attorney because it will turn the process into a hostile battle of the spouses. For many people, a divorce means a change in finances. These are just a few reasons that people are quickly turning to AI-assisted divorces.

As with any technology, it is essential to understand the full scope of benefits and risks associated with relying on AI assistance – this is especially true when making significant and legally binding decisions. During your LLF Law Firm consultation, we will walk you through the pros and cons of incorporating AI assistance into your divorce.

How AI Can Assist You in the Divorce Process

AI can be a valuable resource for many spouses during the divorce process. AI software can provide common samples of divorce agreements, child support agreements, custody schedules, and more. It can also help you establish realistic starting points for negotiating. Many AI programs allow you to enter data on your family situation, like child-related expenses, household expenses, household income, and more.

It can also provide background information about how agreements are formulated and what factors are taken into consideration. For example, when calculating alimony, your attorneys and the court will consider factors like income analysis and length of marriage. AI can offer explanations and justifications.

Using AI can give you important background information to supplement your time with your LLF Law Firm attorney. During our time with you, we can confirm or clarify the information you have and explain why or why not the AI-generated advice and information is appropriate in your case.

Risks Associated with AI-Assisted Divorce

We’ve all heard about AI getting it wrong, from major issues to minor mistakes. It isn’t just that AI technology can make mistakes; it’s that the human element is missing. AI doesn’t have your best interests in mind – it isn’t looking to protect your assets. AI creates a one-size-fits-all solution with your data without knowing you, your spouse, and the dynamics of your divorce. Unless you and your spouse agree on everything AI says, conflict will arise, and AI can’t solve that. It can’t negotiate with your spouse or their attorney, nor can it represent you in court proceedings.

Another significant concern is what AI is doing with your data. What you enter into AI can go into the abyss. If you’re concerned about the security and privacy of your personal information, you may want to consider how comfortable you feel sharing your data with AI.
