AI agent governance for law firms and legal departments
Client privilege, confidentiality obligations, bar ethics rules: your agents draft contracts, review documents, and conduct research with extremely sensitive data. Roval gives you the registry, monitoring, and audit trail your practice demands.
Legal ethics rules were not designed for autonomous AI agents
AI agents are drafting contracts, conducting legal research, and reviewing documents that contain client-privileged information, with no supervision framework built for autonomous systems.
Attorney-client privilege can be waived the moment an LLM prompt contains privileged content and reaches a third-party API without proper safeguards.
Bar ethics rules require competence in supervising technology. Most firms have no way to demonstrate they are actually monitoring what their AI agents do.
Document review agents access case files across matters without access controls. One misconfigured agent could expose opposing-party data or conflict information.
Regulatory frameworks for legal
Pre-mapped requirements. Activate a framework and Roval tracks evidence per requirement.
Rules of Professional Conduct governing competence, confidentiality, and supervision of technology in legal practice.
Data processing, consent management, and right to explanation for AI systems handling client personal data.
Trust service criteria mapped to agent governance, required by enterprise clients and legal technology vendors.
Risk classification, transparency obligations, and conformity assessment for AI systems deployed in EU jurisdictions.
AI management system certification: governance, risk management, and responsible AI practices for legal technology.
Voluntary risk management framework for identifying, assessing, and mitigating AI risks in legal operations.
Pre-built policies for legal
Start from a template, customize the rules, and activate. Every policy enforces controls on your agents.
Detects client names, case numbers, and privileged content in prompts. Blocks sensitive data from reaching external model APIs.
Restricts which agents can access which matters and case files. Enforces matter-level isolation across all AI interactions.
Comprehensive logging for every agent interaction with contract documents: who accessed what, when, and what changes were suggested.
Guards against hallucinated case citations and statutes. Validates every legal reference before it reaches a brief or memo.
Prevents agents from accessing opposing party data or matter files where a conflict exists. Enforces ethical walls automatically.
Controls for external LLM API usage with client data: data residency checks, vendor approval lists, and cost limits per matter.
Built for the audit that's already scheduled
Privilege-aware audit trail
Every agent interaction (document access, prompt content, response generation) logged with timestamp, user, matter, and privilege flag. Export to PDF for your managing partner.
Real-time cost attribution

Continuous compliance monitoring
Certifications expire. Configurations drift. Partners leave. Roval detects it all within 15 minutes and alerts before your next review.
