One of Stuart’s slides about digital Lego. ‘Put the power into the hands of the users.’
One of Al Giles’ slides, from Axiom – guaranteed to upset the traditionalists…. 🙂
Richard Goold of EY interviews Emily Foges, CEO of legal AI co. Luminance.

From Canada with hockey and legal tech: Chris Bentley and Hersh Perlis on Ryerson University’s Legal Innovation Zone’s great work in this space.
The North America Squad ! (Slightly out of chronology here…but), L to R – Noah from Kira, Haley Altman from Doxly, Christian Lang – New York’s legal tech star, and Nicole Bradick, US legal engineer, Founder of Theory and Principle. (Note….Alma Asay is not this photo…. 🙂
A great slide from Nicole Bradick on legal design about how a simple court document was so badly designed it made people not turn up to court. So, they redesigned it and attendance at court rose by 36%. Legal design at work!

OK……just realised I have a lot more photos to show you all, but I’ve got to get something else done today… 🙂  I may have missed some people – which given there were about 2,000 people at Legal Geek, is possibly a few…Plus of course, the Legal Design event is still going on today (Thursday).

So, here are a last couple to round off what happened yesterday.

Paul Neo, from Singapore, talking about FLIP and the nation’s massive project to advance its legal market and help it to adapt to the new wave of legal technology…..legal tech adoption on a national level….what a project!
These guys had a really good time! Nick Watson of Ruby Datum and Timo from Cosmonauts.

So, a last pic, in this case, from up-and-coming document automation platform, Contract Mill, with a little advisory support….L to R: me, Kaisa Kromhof – Contract Mill, Catherine Bamford, CEO and Founder of BAM Legal, Hannele Korhonen – Contract Mill, and Heikki Ilvessalo, CEO of Ilvessolutions in Finland.

That’s all folks!

P.S. There’s been a shed-load of news and bits and bobs to report on over the last couple of days. I’ll try and do a wrap up piece tomorrow to cover it all.

Thanks again to Jimmy at Legal Geek for an amazing event. And a big thank you to all the people who said hello and came to have a chat! You are all helping to change the legal world and the means of legal production, Artificial Lawyer salutes you!
