What's an SNDA Agreement?

Commercial real estate pros see this term constantly, but what does it actually mean? Let's break it down.
SNDA = Subordination, Non-Disturbance, and Attornment

These three components impact tenants, landlords/borrowers and lenders and their various rights and obligations when it comes to commercial leasing and financing transactions.

What happens when your AI prompts become evidence?

It’s not a hypothetical anymore.

Courts are actively weighing how generative AI intersects with attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine, and discoverability, and recent decisions suggest the rules are still taking shape.

In this new article, Richard Berwanger, Jr. breaks down key rulings, including Warner v. Gilbarco and Morgan v. V2X, and what they mean for attorneys, litigants, and anyone using AI tools in a legal context.

A few takeaways worth paying attention to:
- Using AI may not automatically waive work product protections
- Courts are distinguishing between civil vs. criminal contexts
- Discovery requests related to AI use are already emerging

Liff, Walsh & Simmons continually tracks important developments in litigation and legal ethics, and this is one area you cannot afford to ignore.

If AI is part of your workflow, even indirectly, this is worth a read.

Rolling up our sleeves and making a real impact.

Liff, Walsh & Simmons and were proud to host our Spring Community Blood Drive benefiting Luminis Health—and our team showed up in a big way. With 12 team members donating, we were able to help up to 36 patients in our community. That’s the kind of behind-the-scenes impact that truly matters.

From small acts to big outcomes, we’re always looking for ways to support our neighbors here in Annapolis and beyond. Our semiannual blood drives are just one of the many ways we’re committed to giving back to Luminis Health and the community we call home.
