Last week, Anytime AI attended Pennsylvania Association for Justice (PAJ) at its Fall Sectional Meeting, held from October 23rd to October 25th, 2024. This gathering offered a fantastic opportunity for learning, sharing insights, and connecting with old and new friends within the plaintiff law community. Representing Anytime AI, Henry Hu, Co-founder and COO, and Chris Nash, Head of Business Development and Marketing, attended this meeting, gaining fresh insights into the challenges and present needs of plaintiff lawyers. This year’s meeting illuminated a central theme that has long underscored effective legal strategies: the power of storytelling to engage jurors and win cases.
Key Takeaway: Storytelling as the Foundation of Winning Cases
The most powerful takeaway from the event was a reminder of how crucial storytelling is in winning cases. One speaker illustrated this with a vivid analogy: building a case is like filling a jar with rocks, pebbles, and sand. The rocks are the key pieces of the case, the pebbles add important context, but it’s the sand that fills all the gaps, representing the human elements that resonate with jurors on a personal level. As this speaker emphasized, it’s often these intangible, personal stories that drive a case to victory.
Reflecting on this analogy, Anytime AI’s role becomes clear: helping attorneys focus on the parts of the process that matter most. By handling labor-intensive tasks like organizing medical records and documentation, Anytime AI enables lawyers to place the “rocks” and “pebbles” quickly and efficiently, freeing them to add the “sand,” the personal stories that connect deeply with jurors. With AI taking on repetitive work, attorneys can spend their time crafting meaningful, persuasive narratives. Ultimately, it’s this combination of the “sand” and the story that can move jurors, shaping the outcome and winning cases.
Chris Nash Speaks on AI in the Workers’ Compensation Sectional Meeting
Chris Nash presented at the Workers’ Compensation sectional meeting by highlighting the importance and role of AI in today’s legal landscape. He emphasized how AI technology can significantly ease the heavy administrative workload that plaintiff lawyers face, especially in managing detailed records and documents associated with workers’ compensation cases. By automating these time-intensive tasks, AI enables attorneys to operate with far greater efficiency, reducing time spent on repetitive processes and increasing overall productivity. Nash pointed out that with tools like Anytime AI, plaintiff lawyers can streamline case preparation, allowing them to allocate more resources toward critical aspects of case development.
The Rise of AI in Legal Discussions
An exciting trend at this year’s PAJ meeting was the natural shift in conversation towards artificial intelligence and its transformative role in law. Anytime AI was pleased to see that a majority of the section meetings, though not initially intended to focus on AI, evolved into lively discussions about its potential impact on the legal industry. Plaintiff lawyers alike were eager to explore how AI tools can streamline case work, enhance storytelling, and reduce workload, enabling a stronger focus on key trial strategies.
This shift in discourse underscores how AI is becoming an indispensable resource within the legal field, and Anytime AI is proud to be at the forefront of this transformation. By automating labor-intensive processes, AI is redefining what is possible for plaintiff lawyers, creating new efficiencies and allowing them to dedicate more time to case-winning strategies.

The PAJ Fall Sectional Meeting was more than just a learning opportunity, it was a place to strengthen bonds and build new ones. Henry Hu and Chris Nash reconnected with longtime Anytime AI supporter and PAJ President Larry Kelly, who has been a steadfast advocate for technological advancement in the legal field.
