In the world of data and AI, legal can’t be an after-the-fact function. As JMAN scales at the intersection of private capital and technical innovation, General Counsel, Sara Mackie is transforming legal from a fragmented effort into a robust architectural discipline.

In a Corporate Counsel Business Journal blog, Sara explains how she has built a legal function designed for velocity, accountability and durability, from managing cross-border data responsibilities to navigating the evolving landscape of AI regulation.

In this blog, you will learn:

  • Legal as Architecture, Not Just Policy: In high-growth, tech-driven environments, the legal function must be “built” to scale alongside engineering and consulting teams.
  • Velocity through Governance: Creating clear internal frameworks for legal means firms move faster with durable processes.
  • AI Pragmatism: Human judgment and robust governance must keep pace with technical innovation to ensure accountability.
