Rex Anderson is a retired attorney and AI Governance Advisor.
For three decades, he practiced real estate and bankruptcy law in federal court, where clarity, accuracy, and responsibility were not optional. That background shaped his approach to risk: not as a technical problem, but as a matter of defined authority and downstream consequence.
Most AI conversations begin with tools:Ā which model to use, which workflow to automate, which platform to deploy.
Rexā€™s work begins earlier.
Before AI systems influence client work, financial reporting, or internal operations, someone in the firm must be able to answer a more fundamental question: Who owns the consequences of this system?
He works with managing partners and firm leadership to surface where AI is already affecting work product, clarify decision authority, and define policies that reflect the firmā€™s professional obligations, not vendor marketing or informal experimentation.
His engagements are structured and time-bound, designed to create definitional clarity at the leadership level, followed by ongoing governance support as AI capabilities continue to evolve.
Rex lives in Scottsdale Arizona with his dog Charlie.
