In this engaging interview, Laina Chan, Founder and CEO of MiAI Law, and Dr. Jennifer Long, Psychiatrist at Still Point Practice, explore the profound intersection of emotion, logic, and justice. They discuss how empathy can refine judgment and how human intuition continues to play a crucial role in legal decision-making, even as AI systems become more prominent in the courtroom.

Laina shares her insights on how AI-driven legal research can provide faster, more precise data, but emphasizes that empathy and emotional intelligence are still essential for nuanced legal decisions.
