Legal Tech and the Law Society- exciting times!
Christina Blacklaws (she/her)
Award winning legal sector leader: former President of the Law Society, visionary campaigner and advocate for innovation, diversity and inclusion and access to justice. Chief Executive Officer at Blacklaws Consulting.
Legal technology, innovation and the future of legal services is one of the key themes of my presidential term (beginning in July 2018). Here's a link to an article I recently wrote for Artifical Lawyer: https://www.artificiallawyer.com/2018/04/17/change-is-coming-christina-blacklaws-the-next-law-society-president/
In addition, we're really pleased to announce our new partnership with Barclays: Barclays launches law-tech incubator with the Law Society
Barclays has today launched a law-tech incubator in partnership with the Law Society and magic circle firms Allen & Overy and Clifford Chance.
The initiative aims to “turbo-charge” the UK’s law-tech sector by helping companies start-up and scale-up with the aim of creating international leaders in their fields.
A law-tech “Eagle Lab” - Barclays name for its tech incubators – is being launched in Notting Hill to create a centre of excellence.
It will provide co-working space and support for up to 100 people and there are also plans for an events and meet-up space.
Law Society vice-president Christina Blacklaws said: “This collaboration will create a forum for solicitors to learn and innovate with entrepreneurs and developers for the common good of the legal sector. We encourage all our members to get involved.”
