As it appeared in the Connecticut Employment Law Blog

Garrison Law Partner Nina Pirrotti recently joined attorney Daniel Schwartz for another installment of their ongoing “Dialogue” on employment law issues, this time as part of an American Bar Association podcast episode.

Their conversation focused on artificial intelligence tools in the workplace and the legal guardrails that employers, employees, and attorneys should be thinking about as this technology continues to develop.

AI is no longer a distant workplace issue. Employers are increasingly using AI-driven tools in hiring, screening, evaluating, monitoring, and managing employees. As these tools become more common, they raise important questions about discrimination, transparency, privacy, accountability, and the role of existing labor and employment laws.

In the episode, Nina and Dan discuss some of the opportunities, risks, and potential legal minefields that come with the use of AI in employment settings.

Thanks to Nina for continuing to participate in these important conversations about the changing workplace.

    Client Experiences

    You will never meet a more knowledgeable and compassionate professional than Steve Fitzgerald. My employment situation was very complex, and Attorney Fitzgerald kept me focused while remaining extremely adept and “thinking on his feet.” Should the need present itself again, I would never seek anyone else’s counsel regarding employment issues. I cannot recommend him highly enough. — J.R., New Haven, CT

    Nina Pirrotti provided outstanding legal advice and was trustworthy, dependable, and responsive. From the start, I was confident that her knowledge and experience would obtain favorable results. On a more personal note, I enjoyed working with her and her staff and felt I was included in every part of the process. The dedication, concern, and interest in me as a client was greatly appreciated, and Nina has earned my highest recommendation. — J.H., Monroe, CT

    Josh Goodbaum truly outperformed my expectations. He was calm and steadfast throughout the entire process. He is a great communicator. Together, we were able to lay out a plan that in the end, not only got myself the outcome I was hoping for, but undoubtedly saved me valuable time and money as well. I cannot thank Josh and his firm enough for coming through for me in this time of uncertainty and stress.  — D.T.

    When I go to a lawyer for advice, I am usually anxious, particularly the first meeting. Amanda DeMatteis was clear in describing my options and immediately set me at ease. Realistic assessment is important, and Amanda was clear as to how to set up the case and the direction she felt we should go. I had total confidence in her abilities and knew I was being well represented against a large corporation. More importantly, we were successful! — N.M., Haddam, CT
