The Witness in Real Time: AI-Assisted Testimony Verification in Trials and Arbitrations

​When a witness contradicts prior evidence mid-hearing, the window to act is narrow. The Amber Heard vs Johnny Depp trial put this in sharp focus for a global audience: testimony that unravelled in real time against audio recordings, prior statements, and documentary evidence, with the contradiction visible to everyone except, arguably, the team that needed to act on it fastest. This workshop, hosted by Loom Analytics, explores how AI-powered testimony verification is changing what's possible in live proceedings. Attendees will examine how legal teams can surface inconsistencies against transcripts, documents, and prior statements in real time rather than overnight, and what that means for strategy, questioning, and the conduct of hearings.

Key Takeaways:

• ​A practical understanding of how real-time testimony verification works and what it requires to implement

• ​Honest assessment of where AI flags are reliable enough to act on, and where human judgment remains essential

• ​A clearer picture of the procedural and admissibility considerations practitioners need to plan around
  Peer perspectives on how legal teams are currently handling evidence cross-referencing under hearing pressure
