AI Commercial & Infrastructure Transactions
Legal support for the AI supply chain
AI deals move fast. Chips are reserved with deposits, capacity is committed before it exists, and customers want answers on data and model use before they sign. General Legal’s attorneys help companies negotiate those terms quickly, without giving up the protections they'll need as they scale.
We advise compute and inference providers as well as AI-native companies across the AI supply chain, from financing chips to enterprise customer contracts. Because we work in different parts of this chain, we are familiar with contracts on both sides of deals and understand industry standards as they are still taking shape.
