Lawyers often think of legal operations, legal technology, and legal practice as separate disciplines. But many of the same principles that improve a legal department, support a successful technology product, or strengthen the management of a legal matter are more connected than they might first appear.In this episode, I sit down with Justin McCallon, CEO of the legal AI company Strongsuit and a former legal transformation leader at AT&T. We explore how process-improvement frameworks and operational thinking can help legal professionals solve problems more effectively. Justin shares lessons from leading large-scale legal transformation efforts, launching AI products, and building systems that help litigators navigate complex matters with greater clarity and confidence.Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: agileattorney.com/123Take your law practice from overwhelmed to optimized with GreenLine LegalFollow along on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/johnegrantFollow Justin on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/justin-mccallon

Summary Jared Correia sits down with Sean McTigue, a partner at Bartko Pavia LLP and one of the more technically fluent attorneys in practice today. Sean unpacks how his firm navigated the leap from legal-specific AI tools to a direct enterprise deployment of Anthropic's models, and why he thinks that distinction matters a lot more than most firms realize. The conversation covers practical ground: how to use Westlaw's Quickcheck as a verification loop, why lawyers overestimate what AI will do for them on the first try, and how to find the early adopters inside a firm and turn their discoveries into firm-wide workflows. Sean also looks ahead at what AI means for the billable hour model and why the legal profession can't afford to stay in the way. About the Guest Sean McTigue is a partner at Bartko Pavia LLP in San Francisco, where he handles complex litigation with a particular focus on integrating AI into the practice of law. He has been following the development of large language models closely since GPT-4's launch and has led the firm's rollout of Anthropic for Enterprise. Sean studied philosophy at the University of Utah and earned his law degree at Berkeley Law. Key Takeaways Hallucination risk in AI outputs is a solved problem, using tools like Westlaw's Quickcheck as a verification flywheel alongside AI drafting, not a reason to avoid AI entirely. Legal-specific tools rarely add value beyond a general foundation model; the wrapper around the model matters less than most vendors claim. Direct enterprise deployment of a foundation model lets firms ride the frontier rather than being stuck on whatever model a SaaS vendor last tested. The billable hour model is under pressure, and firms that build internal AI capital now are better positioned to shift toward fixed-fee and alternative-fee arrangements. Adoption inside a firm starts with finding the heavy users, learning what they figured out, and distributing those workflows to everyone else.

[00:05:00 - 00:07:57] Sean explains why lawyers who try AI once, find it imperfect, and dismiss it are missing the workflow question entirely. [00:08:13 - 00:09:28] The hammer-and-nail analogy: being handed a tool and told to use it without any guidance on what the full project actually looks like. [00:19:14 - 00:23:27] Sean describes the frustration of vetting legal AI vendors who can't tell you what model they're running, including an e-discovery platform using Haiku 3 on million-document reviews. [00:24:54 - 00:28:05] The case for direct foundation model deployment over legal-specific SaaS wrappers, and what you can do with a generalist model that a niche tool will never offer. [00:36:44 - 00:40:43] The future of legal billing: from the billable hour back toward fixed-fee engagements, and why firms that build AI capital now are better positioned. [00:41:50 - 00:47:23] Sean's starter recommendation: Westlaw citing references downloaded in bulk and fed to an LLM, plus why Google AI Overview is already AI whether lawyers know it or not.

Safee-Naaz Siddiqi, Professional Support Lawyer in the Knowledge Management practice at Cliffe Dekker Hofmeyr, speaks to Lester Kiewit about the growing legal and compliance risks linked to artificial intelligence tools in the workplace.

At 11 years old, Dan Mishin convinced his grandmother to move in with his parents so he could turn her apartment into a backpacker hostel. The idea came to him in Berlin, where his mom's wallet had just been stolen and they were stranded overnight in a hostel full of laughing 20-year-olds speaking a language he didn't understand. He made two decisions on the train ride home: learn English, and open a place just like it.That summer project became the largest hostel chain in Eastern Europe — 13 countries, 3,500 guests a night — and the start of one of the most unlikely founder journeys you'll hear this year.In this episode, Dan sits down with Jessica Neal to walk through all of it. Starting a company at 11 in post-Soviet Ukraine, a place he describes as the Wild West, with no functioning law enforcement and entire generations of savings wiped out overnight by government decisions. Sleeping in his car for six months when the business almost went bankrupt. Signing 100-year leases with personal guarantees at 18 because Ukrainian law had no concept of bankruptcy protection. Raising a $100M term sheet that same year. Buying a yellow Porsche he now calls a total douchebag move. Ballooning to 280 pounds on a diet of Snickers and Red Bull. And eventually getting on a flight to the US with a single phone number — only to walk away from a 10-minute call with a $100K check at a $5M valuation.After building Joon Homes to $300M and 250 employees, Dan hit a wall most founders don't talk about: he was building something valuable, but he didn't believe in it anymore. So he walked away to start Manifest — an AI-native legal company that's raised $60M to fix one of the most broken industries in America. The US has 1.3 million lawyers, ten times more per capita than most countries in the world, yet 80% of Americans can't afford one. Dan thinks he knows why, and he's rebuilding the entire system starting with immigration.The conversation also goes deep on what it actually means to run an AI-native company — how Dan hires, why he believes generalists are winning, the applied AI engineers he embeds in every team, and the one-year severance policy he introduced to take the fear out of automating yourself out of a job.A conversation about volatility, reinvention, and what it actually takes to build something that matters.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

SUMMARY Teo Doremus traded a litigation desk in China for a startup in San Francisco, and along the way he became convinced that the legal industry's AI moment is right now. On this episode, Teo makes the case for starting an AI-native law firm, walks through how he thinks about hallucination risk, and explains the "digital desk" concept behind Advocacy, a platform built to connect the narrative silos of litigation that have historically lived in Microsoft Word and nowhere else. Teo also shares what he got wrong about law practice, why he thinks lawyers misunderstand what AI actually does when it "helps" them, and draws the most useful analogy you will hear about what lawyers get paid for in an AI world. The pilot and the autopilot are not enemies. Neither are lawyers and AI. The question is figuring out who does what. KEY TAKEAWAYS Start building your AI-native practice now. The advantage goes to whoever gets comfortable with the technology first, not whoever waits for it to be perfect. Before deploying AI in your firm, learn what it actually is and what it is not. Understanding its fundamental limitations is your best defense against hallucinations. AI adoption in law is high on subscriptions and low on genuine daily use. Real adoption means using AI regularly enough that it changes how you work, not just having a login. Specialized legal AI tools and general AI tools are not competitors. Use both strategically depending on how much precision your task requires. The lawyer's value in an AI-assisted practice looks like the pilot who no longer holds the stick for seventeen hours: rested, prepared, and ready for whatever the automation cannot handle. WHO IS THE GUEST? Teo Doremus is the CEO and co-founder of Advocacy, a litigation-focused AI platform built around what he calls the "digital desk," a place where all the narrative silos of a case live together and AI connects them. Before founding Advocacy, Teo practiced law in China and the United States as both a litigator and a transactional attorney. He studied law in France after picking it almost by accident at 18, fell in love with it along the way, and eventually made his way to San Francisco, where a deep dive into AI convinced him the legal industry needed something that did not yet exist. Advocacy can be found at advocacy.ai.

[00:04:35 - 00:06:03] Why the hallucination conversation needs multiple angles at once, and why no single answer is going to hold. [00:06:04 - 00:06:44] What lawyers fundamentally misunderstand about AI: it does not actually understand you. When it does not know the answer, it just agrees with you. [00:10:37 - 00:11:26] Teo describes the moment AI went from a five-minute curiosity to a full obsession that changed the direction of his career. [00:13:55 - 00:14:28] The origin of the "digital desk" concept and why Microsoft Word from 1984 is still, technically, the competition. [00:21:40 - 00:23:11] The pilot analogy: if planes have flown themselves for twenty years, what exactly are pilots for? And what does that tell us about lawyers?

Comment diriger l'une des associations les plus exposées politiquement de France tout en faisant tourner son cabinet en solo ? Élise Van Beneden a présidé Anticor de 2020 à 2024 — quatre années à porter plainte contre des membres du gouvernement, à se battre pour le renouvellement de l'agrément anticorruption, à encaisser une tempête médiatique et une tentative de putsch interne, le tout en exerçant individuellement au barreau de Paris.Dans cet épisode, elle raconte sans filtre :— Pourquoi elle s'est engagée à Anticor en 2009, à 21 ans, après quatre années d'études en Italie sous l'ère Berlusconi— L'équation économique du bénévolat extrême : 25 heures par semaine pour l'association, des années à 28 000 euros de revenus, des passages au service social de l'Ordre— La bataille de l'agrément anticorruption en 2021 : le silence du ministère, la saisine de la CNIL sur le RGPD, la cellule de gestion de crise montée en urgence avec des communicants bénévoles— Le putsch interne pendant le confinement, les statuts sur la table de chevet, la fracture du conseil d'administration— Pourquoi elle n'a jamais été l'avocate d'Anticor (et ce que ça dit du conflit d'intérêts)— Ses trois conseils aux avocats qui se lancent : le coussin financier comme hygiène mentale, la programmation des mails comme cadre relationnel, et une règle stratégique qu'elle a apprise à ses dépensUn épisode sur l'engagement, oui — mais surtout sur ce que coûte réellement de tenir une posture, et sur les arbitrages très concrets d'une avocate qui a choisi de faire du droit un outil de combat sans jamais cesser d'exercer.
In this episode, Michael Francony, Senior Legal Project and Operations Manager at Novartis, shares what it really takes to transition from buyer to true partner when working with legal technology vendors. Drawing on experience from both sides of the table he offers a grounded perspective on what makes implementations succeed or fail.The conversation covers how to define the "why" before jumping into execution, and Michael's four F's framework for vendor relationships: friendly, fair, firm, and fun.The discussion also touches on stakeholder management, the challenges of measuring ROI without baseline data, and how AI is reshaping the legal technology landscape — from established vendors to AI-first solutions built at a pace that would have been unthinkable just a year ago.

Cet épisode d'Avocats Génération Entrepreneurs a été enregistré en public, à la Maison de l'Avocat du Barreau de Paris, dans le cadre de la première Digital Week organisée par le Barreau de Paris et l'ACE.Tony Law, fondateur de la plateforme Le Juriste de Demain — dédiée à la formation des professionnels du droit sur les sujets business, technologie et soft skills — et Clarisse Berrebi, avocate fiscaliste et fondatrice des cabinets Bold et Ether, sont nos invités pour une conversation sans filtre sur un sujet qui agite toute la profession : l'impact de l'intelligence artificielle générative sur la tarification des avocats.Ce que vous entendrez dans cet épisode :Faut-il facturer moins cher parce que l'IA réduit le temps de travail ? Doit-on dire à ses clients qu'on l'utilise ? Le taux horaire peut-il encore tenir dans un modèle économique viable ?Tony Law propose une méthode concrète pour cartographier son historique tarifaire, identifier ses dossiers bien ou mal tarifés, et construire une fourchette de prix cohérente avec sa valeur réelle. Clarisse Berrebi va plus loin : elle affirme que le taux horaire était déjà condamné avant l'IA, qu'elle l'a abandonné dès 2008 — et que le vrai sujet est de comprendre ce que le client achète réellement, pas ce que l'avocat produit.La discussion aborde aussi les structures de cabinet (pyramide classique vs modèle associatif horizontal de type Square), la question de la transparence déontologique sur l'utilisation de l'IA, la convention d'honoraires comme contrat de prestation de services à construire sur mesure, et la formation des jeunes avocats dans un contexte où les tâches juniors sont progressivement absorbées par les outils génératifs.En fil rouge : comment passer d'un modèle opérationnel à un modèle stratégique — et pourquoi la valeur perçue par le client est désormais le seul critère de tarification pertinent.Hébergé par Ausha.

Legal tech comes up constantly when lawyers are thinking about leaving practice. It's legal adjacent, the field is growing, and there seem to be a lot of jobs. But when lawyers actually try to make a move, they usually don't know where to start. The roles aren't standardized, the titles don't mean the same thing across companies, and it's hard to know where a legal background even fits in.Ben Chiriboga figured this out the hard way. He spent two years after leaving practice chasing legal tech roles without any real direction, burned through his savings, and eventually found his path, going on to become a founding team member of a legal tech startup. Now he runs Reframe Lawyer, a platform built specifically to help lawyers move into legal tech and AI careers.In this episode of The Former Lawyer Podcast, Sarah Cottrell talks with Ben about the three main career tracks available to lawyers in legal tech and AI, why a JD is a bigger competitive advantage than most lawyers think, and why figuring out who you are and what you want has to happen before anything else.0:52 - Ben Chiriboga on founding Reframe Lawyer and his path from practice to legal tech2:27 - Why legal tech keeps coming up for lawyers who want to leave practice4:07 - No agreed terms, no standardized titles, and what that means for your job search4:45 - You're not alone in being confused about where to start in legal tech9:17 - The three main career paths in legal tech and AI for lawyers leaving practice11:41 - Product roles and why lawyers are better positioned for them than they think13:00 - Go-to-market roles and why a JD is a competitive advantage in sales conversations13:48 - Why operations roles are booming inside legal tech companies right now15:13 - JD required vs. JD preferred and what your legal background signals to employers17:55 - Why lawyers automatically rank in the top 1% of candidates for legal tech jobs24:52 - Why lawyers try to execute before they know their objective30:25 - Why applying for every legal tech role is a recipe for madness35:37 - How to speak to a role you've never held and start building proof of interest39:38 - Why updating your resume is the last thing you should do42:24 - Ben's closing take on legal tech as a viable career path for lawyers ready to make a moveMentioned In How to Break Into Legal Tech and AI as a Lawyer with Ben ChiribogaReframe Lawyer | Ben Chiriboga on LinkedInEscaping Lawyer Burnout for Legal Tech with Ben ChiribogaHow To Revise Your Resumé For A Non-Legal JobFrom Biglaw to Legal Tech with Alex SuThe Claude-Native Law Firm by Zack ShapiroFirst Steps to Leaving the LawThe Former Lawyer Collaborative

Most law firms don't have a tech problem. They have a decision-making problem. In episode 611 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Zack Glaser talks with Scott Clasen about how to evaluate legal technology in a world where AI is changing everything and somehow making it more confusing at the same time. Too many firms are stuck buying more tools, chasing new features, and hoping the next platform will finally fix their workflow. Scott challenges that approach by shifting the focus away from software and back to systems, asking a more important question: what problem are you actually trying to solve? They explore the rise of AI-powered SaaS, the appeal of building your own tools, and why “AI-enabled” doesn't always mean “useful.” The conversation also breaks down how to evaluate legal tech vendors, what contextual AI actually means, and how to think about long-term investments when the landscape keeps shifting every six months. If your tech stack feels bloated, expensive, or underwhelming, this episode offers a smarter way to make decisions that actually move your firm forward.

What if the biggest barrier to justice in America is the legal profession itself and the solution begins by rethinking who is allowed to help people solve their legal problems? Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg sit down with Natalie Knowlton of Stanford Law School's Deborah L. Rhode Center about the widening gap between the legal system and the people it is meant to serve. Millions of Americans cannot access legal help, including many in the middle class. Natalie argues the problem goes beyond funding. The structure of the profession itself limits who can deliver legal services and how people receive help. This conversation sits at the intersection of Legal Tech, Access to Justice, policy, and innovation. A central question drives the discussion. Should lawyers be the only people allowed to provide legal assistance? Natalie challenges that long-standing assumption. Many everyday legal needs involve simple processes such as filling out forms or navigating court procedures. Could trained non-lawyers and technology expand access where lawyers are scarce or unaffordable? The conversation explores how emerging Legal Tech tools and direct-to-consumer platforms may help people understand legal problems and identify practical next steps. The episode also looks at how legal education, regulation, and global experimentation shape the future of the profession. Natalie points to reforms in places like the United Kingdom and Canada that test new service models through regulatory sandboxes. Could similar experimentation help the United States close the justice gap? The discussion leaves listeners with a larger question about the future of law. What would the legal system look like if it were designed around real human needs and genuine Access to Justice?

When Ross McNairn realized his legal career meant reviewing 15,000 documents by hand, he didn't just question the system - he rewrote it. Literally. In this episode, Mary sits down with the Wordsmith ai founder to unpack what happens when a former lawyer turned engineer takes on legal's biggest inefficiencies and why AI is about to redraw the boundaries between in-house teams and law firms. From exploding startup valuations to the rise of "shadow legal," Ross brings a builder's lens to a profession in flux. The result is a candid, sometimes uncomfortable look at where legal work is actually headed, and who stands to win. This episode of Pearls On, Gloves Off is powered by Workday. Learn more at workday.com. In this episode: The Breaking Point: Ross shares the exact moment he realized private practice incentives reward inefficiency, and why that pushed him to build instead of bill. AI's Real Impact on Legal Spend: Why in-house teams are poised to cut 70–80% of external counsel costs, and why no GC is asking for more law firm dependency. The Two-Sided Market Problem: Can one product truly serve both law firms and in-house teams when their incentives are fundamentally opposed? The Founder Reality Check: Behind the hype of legal AI startups - what building a company actually feels like, and why most won't survive the next wave. The Rise of Legal Engineering: The emerging role that blends law, systems thinking, and AI - and why it may become the most in-demand job in legal. Who Wins Next: Ross's prediction that up to 80% of current legal tech players won't survive the coming platform shift. If you're trying to make sense of legal AI beyond the hype, this conversation delivers a clear-eyed view of what's changing, what's breaking, and what's being built next.

Live from Legalweek 2026, David Cowen sits down with Rian Kennedy, Director of Legal Hold Sales at DISCO, to talk about what has actually changed in legal tech over the last 12 months. The conversation goes beyond AI hype and gets into what matters now: cloud maturity, agentic workflows, insourcing pressure, tighter budgets, and why legal teams are starting to use technology to control spend, consolidate systems, and rethink where legal ops ends and business ops begins. Hosted by David Cowen Key Topics Covered Why the legal market has moved from cautious curiosity to real AI adoption, with law finally pushing to stay competitive instead of lagging behind How the pandemic accelerated cloud adoption and set the stage for today's faster embrace of GenAI and agentic AI Why the most valuable buyers are still the innovators who want to build alongside vendors before tools become table stakes How corporate legal teams are reassessing what to keep in-house, what to send to outside counsel, and where ALSPs fit in the middle Why legal ops leaders who mastered contracts and workflow discipline are now asking the bigger question: what comes next How litigation budgets are becoming a strategic focus, with more interest in visibility, control, consolidation, and reducing outside counsel spend Why legal hold, eDiscovery, and preservation are becoming more important as data sources multiply and automation becomes essential
For the final installment of our LawNext on Location series, Bob heads across the bay, from San Francisco to Oakland, to the headquarters of e-discovery company Everlaw, where he sits down with founder and CEO AJ Shankar for a conversation about technology, AI and being in it for the long game. AJ grew up in Connecticut, came west in 2002 for a computer science PhD at UC Berkeley, and has lived within a few blocks of the Berkeley campus ever since. He stumbled into the legal industry almost by accident — recruited to serve as a technical expert in litigation involving how the internet worked — and quickly realized that the legal world was home to some of the most technically fascinating and underserved problems he'd ever encountered. He never left. AJ had a prior startup, a computer vision company that was acquired, before launching Everlaw in 2011. The company was cloud-native and ML-infused from the start, built on the conviction, AJ says, that there's no single way to find the needle in a discovery haystack, and that building a genuinely useful litigation platform requires solving for collaboration, ease of use and scalability all at once. The bulk of the conversation focuses on generative AI, and how Everlaw has approached it differently than much of the market. Rather than bolting on a chatbot, AJ says, Everlaw embedded AI deliberately throughout the platform — document summarization, coding suggestions, deposition analysis, fact extraction — always grounding responses in the actual documents at hand and citing sources so users can verify the work. The December launch of Deep Dive, which lets litigators pose a question and get a synthesized, cited answer drawn from an entire document corpus in about a minute, is the feature AJ calls a "new era" for discovery — one he genuinely believes represents a categorical shift. As Everlaw continues to grow, it also remains independent, with no private equity and no outside majority owners. As for AJ, he says he is in it for the long game, and has never included an exit slide in a fundraising deck.
