Feb 2025 Deadline Passed — You're Already Late

You Don't Have Time to Study AI.
You Still Need to Pass Compliance.

Fastest path to EU AI Act Article 4 compliance. For busy lawyers who need competence, not computer science. CPD-accredited.

Article 4 applies to you. Whether you're a sworn advocate, in-house counsel, or compliance officer. The law doesn't care if you're technical. It requires literacy. We train non-technical legal professionals. No programming. No systems engineering. Just workflows you'll actually use. 8 hours gets you compliant. 16 hours makes you competent. CPD credits count toward your annual requirement.

Your Bar Association Has No AI Guidance. We Do.

The EU AI Act has been law since August 2024. Article 4 literacy obligations became mandatory in February 2025. Your bar association still has no AI guidance. No training program. No CPD courses in Latvian, Estonian, or Lithuanian. Until now. Twin Ladder is the first and only accredited program for Baltic legal professionals. Built by lawyers who understand you're not interested in AI theory. You need to know: Can I trust this output? Will this workflow get me sued? Does this satisfy Article 4? We answer those questions. Fast.

Regulatory Authorities Are Clear

Why You Can't Ignore This

Bar associations across Europe are unanimous: AI competence is a professional duty. Not knowing how AI works is no longer a defense. It's incompetence.

You're already late. Your professional duty expanded. The hallucination rate is terrifying. And your bar association expects you to know this.

AI hallucination rates in legal research range from 17% to 33%.

Stanford Research (2024)

One in three AI outputs is wrong.
Misleading the court via AI-generated material — even inadvertently — may amount to incompetence and serious professional misconduct.

UK Bar Council

Incompetence is not a defense.
The duty of competence of the lawyer is not only restricted to law and regulation, but encompasses the obligation to become knowledgeable about a technical product to be used for professional activities.

CCBE (Council of Bars and Law Societies of Europe)

Duty of competence now includes AI.
Basic knowledge of (generative) AI is essential for every lawyer.

Netherlands Bar Association (NOvA)

No exceptions.
