When AI Drafts Your Contracts: Ryan Lisk on Trust, Risk & the Future of Law

“If you’re working to a cookie-cutter legal template, AI deserves to take your job.”

Ryan Lisk, Founder of Hybrid Legal


Ryan started Hybrid Legal at just 21 to make legal services plain-speaking, affordable, and human-centred for SMEs. Now, he’s confronting the sector’s biggest disruption: AI-drafted contracts.

In this episode, David Savage and Ryan explore:

  • Real cases where AI contracts went dangerously wrong

  • The difference between templates and true legal nuance

  • Why trust and accessibility must anchor legal innovation

  • The burnout crisis for junior lawyers—and whether AI helps or harms

  • Data privacy risks in large language models

  • The future skill lawyers may need most: prompting

This is a candid look at how the legal world can balance efficiency with integrity, and why the human element still matters when tech enters the courtroom.
