  • Legal AI and the Access-to-Justice Gap with Jennifer Case

    Roughly 89% of legal claims never reach a lawyer, and legal AI may be the first real fix. JP McAvoy talks with Jennifer Case, CEO and founder of LawTech AI, about the access-to-justice gap and how AI could close it.

    In this episode:

    • Claims between $10,000 and roughly $40,000 are too big for small claims court and too small for most lawyers. AI can make them affordable to pursue.
    • The American Arbitration Association’s AI arbitrator reads the paperwork, applies the law, and suggests a winner in construction disputes.
    • AI drafts discovery responses so lawyers can spend time on strategy, clients, and business development.
    • Expect fewer entry-level roles, more small firms, and AI-native practices that handle intake with AI.
    • Cheaper justice must be safe: business-tier tools, humans in the loop, and no lawyer letters pasted into free ChatGPT.

    Jennifer also explains why her clients keep AI memory in their own document systems, and why she’s cautiously optimistic about AI safety.

    Takeaway: The biggest opportunity in legal AI isn’t helping big firms work faster. It’s serving the people the system has priced out.

  • AI Force Multiplier Trap: Why Bad Data Kills Most AI Projects with Mark Sims

    In this episode of The Millionaire's Lawyer, JP McAvoy sits down with Mark Sims — CEO/CIO advisor, business transformation executive, and M&A strategy expert with 25+ years guiding Fortune 1000 corporations and private equity firms — to break down exactly why AI initiatives stall before they generate ROI.

    What you'll hear in this episode:

    • Why your sales team and finance team report different revenue numbers for the same month — and what that tells you about your AI readiness
    • What "one version of the truth" actually means and how to build it before layering AI on top
    • Where AI is genuinely delivering results: legacy code refactoring, small business ad multiplication, and AI voice agents — including why being upfront about using AI outperformed pretending it was human
    • What the HBS/MIT research says about AI ROI — and why the headline numbers are more sobering than most think
    • The AI governance policy every business needs before employees start uploading sensitive data into ChatGPT or Claude
    • The takeaway: The companies winning with AI aren't the ones with the most advanced tools. They're the ones who fixed their data foundation first.

        • The AI Energy Crisis, Data Centers, and Hard Assets with Nic DeAngelo

          AI's Real Bottleneck Is Energy — and What It Means for Your Money

          In this episode of The Millionaire's Lawyer, JP McAvoy sits down with Nic DeAngelo, President of Saint Investment Group, to map the next decade of wealth building. Nic explains why the energy crunch will decide which AI infrastructure actually gets built, why he treats hard assets — real estate and Bitcoin — as his core inflation hedge, and why the S&P 500 is far less diversified than it looks, with the top 10 companies now roughly 75% of the index.

          They also get into the Fed under new chair Kevin Warsh, how every $10 move in oil feeds straight into US inflation, and a dollar that's lost 99% of its value since 1913.

          Nic's parting advice, learned inside family offices: stop thinking in quarters, start thinking in decades. If you want a framework for where real estate, equities, energy, and crypto are heading, this conversation gives it to you.
