AI applied deterministically to a regulated domain. No hallucinated numbers.
Custom app for a family-law attorney that gives clients grounded estimates on asset division. AI used where it improves outcomes, not where it looks impressive.
The problem
Divorce cases require both a calculation (separation math across asset classes) and a valuation (what those assets are actually worth). Clients often leave initial consultations without a clear picture of what they’re entitled to. Generic LLMs are a bad fit. They hallucinate numbers and over-estimate. Determinism matters more than fluency.
The approach
Integrated the firm’s proprietary separation calculation into an app that gives clients a grounded estimate. Layered AI on the asset-valuation side, designed for conservative estimates. The goal is to avoid over-inflation that creates false expectations. Ongoing work expands scope as Carey identifies more places AI can augment (not replace) the firm’s legal judgment.
