Somebody on your team is already using AI. Client data is going into free chatbots, drafts are going out unreviewed, and nobody decided any of it was okay. Banning AI just pushes it underground. Ignoring it works right up until the day it doesn't.

This guide gives you four memorable frameworks: the Traffic Light System for deciding what AI can touch, the Two-Key Rule for controlling what it does on its own, the Red Line Register for your never events, and the Flight Recorder for proving what happened. Plus a week-by-week 30-day plan to install all of it without a consultant or a committee.

Montalvo Corp builds AI systems and governance for law firms, medical practices, financial advisors, trades, and faith-based organizations. Everything here is written for smart operators, not developers, and tested in businesses where a single AI mistake carries real legal and reputational weight.
