AI-created flaws in legal filings have increased scrutiny and sanctions against attorneys for relying on open-source LLMs that fabricate cases, invent court decisions, and provide improper citations. A database has recorded 376 hallucination cases to date, 244 of which are in the U.S. Attorneys often delegate research, may not review all collected material, and copy and paste citations without adequate fact-checking, increasing vulnerability to AI errors. Low-cost chatbots can summarize documents and draft emails but remain unreliable for drafting courtroom-ready motions.
