ABSTRACT

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming the legal profession, enhancing efficiency in tasks such as document review, case prediction, and legal research. However, its integration raises profound ethical concerns, including bias in algorithms, confidentiality breaches, accountability gaps, and the potential erosion of human judgment. This paper explores the ethical implications of AI in law, analyzing its impact on fairness, transparency, client trust, and professional responsibility. Drawing on interdisciplinary sources, it evaluates challenges and proposes frameworks for ethical AI adoption. The study underscores the need for robust regulations and ethical guidelines to balance innovation with justice.

Keywords: Artificial Intelligence, Legal Ethics, Bias, Confidentiality, Accountability, Professional Responsibility.
