Career Announcement – Chat GPT is pleased to announce that Murray Gottheil has finally achieved his life-long ambition to be a partner in Big Law!
I was bored this morning so I entered the following prompt into Chat GPT: “Create a biography for Murray Gottheil Canadian lawyer.”
This is what it told me:
Murray Gottheil is a Canadian lawyer recognized for his work in technology, intellectual property, and commercial law. He is a partner at Gowling WLG (Canada) LLP, based in Toronto, where he advises clients on complex legal issues at the intersection of law, innovation, and business.
Mr. Gottheil’s practice focuses on technology transactions, intellectual property strategy, data protection, cybersecurity, and emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence. He works with a wide range of clients, from startups and growth-stage companies to established domestic and international organizations, helping them manage legal risk while advancing innovation.
In addition to his advisory work, Murray Gottheil is known for his contributions to legal education and public discourse. He frequently speaks and writes on topics such as technology law, AI governance, digital regulation, and the societal impacts of emerging technologies. His commentary often explores how legal frameworks can adapt to rapid technological change.
Mr. Gottheil is also involved in professional and industry organizations and has contributed to policy discussions related to technology and innovation in Canada. He is regarded as a thoughtful voice on the ethical and legal challenges posed by advanced technologies.
He is a member of the Law Society of Ontario and holds a law degree from a Canadian university.
Just to be clear: I never worked in a law firm in Toronto (although Mississauga is pretty close.) My practice was never primarily focused on technology or intellectual property. I never worked for Gowlings. I have not been a member of the Law Society for almost 6 years.
