In this episode of Legal Talks with Yash, I’m joined by Aashna Duggal (Chief Legal Officer at Girl Power Talk; Director of Legal & Research at Blue Ocean Global Technologies) to discuss what credibility looks like in real legal practice, how reputational risk and defamation cases are triaged in the internet era, and where AI actually helps (and where it absolutely should not decide).
We get practical about the first 48 hours after a reputational attack, including Aashna’s checklist: Preserve → Assess → Align. We also talk about how legal teams can scale without losing quality, and why the future belongs to legal leaders who act as translators and bridge-builders, not gatekeepers.
