AI, Deepfakes, and Digital Evidence in Divorce and Custody Cases

This CLE webinar will discuss how family law attorneys can preserve, present, authenticate, and challenge digital evidence in family court proceedings. The authoritative panelists will examine various evidence types, including: texts, screenshots, social media, email, parenting apps, doorbell footage, digital financial records, location data, cloud-based records, metadata, altered images, falsified communications, and AI-generated audio/video.

Family court clients frequently bring their attorneys digital evidence, which can be essential in proving parenting-time violations, harassment, hidden assets, threats, substance abuse, dissipation, valid income, coercive conduct, and credibility concerns. The cautionary tale is that the same evidence may be incomplete, misleading, altered, out of context, or even fabricated.

Generative AI and deep-fake technologies have layered new risks upon family court proceedings. The panel will navigate how this variety of evidence can affect authentication, chain of custody, expert testimony, discovery, strategy, and more.

Listen as our panel provides family law practitioners with practical guidance for managing a client’s digital evidence in family court hearings, settlements, and trials.
