On this special episode of The Corporate Counsel Show, produced in partnership with Lawcadia, host Jerome Doraisamy and Lawcadia CEO Warwick Walsh discuss how best to grow a business and why technology and innovative thinking are so essential in achieving such growth. Mr Walsh outlines how to build a culture of iteration and continuous improvement, the need to focus on the progress being made by one's team, identifying and solving pain points, applying a mindset of client satisfaction and creating a triage of priorities. The pair also reflect on the experience of Lawcadia in the age of coronavirus, how law firms and in-house teams are using platforms and workflow automation like Lawcadia Intelligence to better navigate this period, and how such strange times have reinforced the value of agility and having a communicative culture.

Today on the show I had a great pleasure of welcoming Sacha Kirk, co-founder and CMO of Lawcadia. In her role Sacha draws on over 15 years experience in marketing, brand strategy, innovation and professional consulting experience in Australia and the UK. Lawcadia is a legal technology company with a web-based platform in-house legal teams and their law firms can use to manage projects, matters and spend. We had a great chat about how the business was started, how they have been able to grow internationally, and what the future holds. As a fast growing legal technology company who has made real inroads both in Australia and internationally I was inspired to hear how they backed themselves and have achieved great success.
For Episode 22 we headed to Washington D.C. to talk to patent attorney Kate Gaudry about using big data to help legal clients. Much of Kate’s data analysis focuses on allowance rates for individual patent examiners (the percentage of patents they approve) and also for the “art units” they work in. We also talk to Kate about how mathematical models like game theory can be used to make decisions about pursuing or abandoning patent applications. Finally, Kate explains that before attorneys start collecting data and using technology to analyze it, they need to take a step back, look at the whole process and figure out which questions really need answered and identify the ones for which data may provide insight. In this episode we also talk to Lawcadia founder Warwick Walsh. The Lawcadia platform is an end-to-end matter and spend management system built specifically for in-house legal teams. Check out episode page. Technically Legal is hosted by Chad Main, an attorney and the founder of Percipient, a tech-enabled alternative legal services provider.

Warwick founded Lawcadia, a lawtech business, in October 2015 in Brisbane Australia. Warwick is passionate about the lean start up philosophy and we talk in depth about the process of ideation, preparing for entrepreneurship and the multi-faceted skills needed to be a CEO and founder, which differs enormously from what was requires as a corporate lawyer. He shares his insights on building his business, the future of legal careers, mentoring and leadership, and how he applies the principles of Build Measure Learn to all their strategy and products. Unusually his co-founder is also his wife who has a blue chip marketing background and he shares his insights on what it works so well for them and why some investors like it.
