You Can’t Have Legal GRC Optimisation Without Data Management Improvement

– By Nick Rich, Head of Corporate Engagement UK&I at Exterro –

Effective data management is no longer an optional extra, but a fundamental part of organisational strategies. Good data analysis allows companies to make informed decisions and create reality-based plans. From enhanced customer experiences to streamlined administrative operations, effective analysis is key to identifying areas for improvement and innovation – and analysis depends on data management.

However, while it’s easy to get caught up in the opportunities data offers, organisations must tread with caution. If captured, kept, or used wrongly, data can end up doing more harm than good.

Typically, more data leads to more risk. With each rise in the amount of information an organisation acquires, the more expensive and difficult it is to store and manage it safely, heightening administrative burdens and costs. Equally, it becomes harder for firms to achieve best practices across … … weiterlesen →

By Shayan Edalati and Jan Gilarowski

Over the last two decades, Cloud-based software has revolutionized the way we build, buy and use software. Few areas are untouched and the cloud is becoming the leading technology. This is true for the legal tech products as well. With the fast adoption came unprecedented growth for the vendors: Over the last years, cloud companies have grown faster than any other industry. And with it, valuations. But recent events have brought a stop to what has been a bonanza not only for the leading SaaS players, but also cloud-based legal tech companies’ valuations.

What happened to the funding environment?

In recent years a variety of factors gave the tech industry a boost: liberal monetary policies made tech’s long-term growth more attractive to investors while the TINA-situation (“there is no alternative”) turned a former niche-market into a shareholder darling. Tech stocks heavily benefitted from the coronavirus pandemic elevating life and work online. Additionally, with several growth funds fuelling the ecosystem … … weiterlesen →

In legal tech it’s hard to find an all-encompassing solution that meets the needs of law firms from lead generation to matter management. Many of the platforms that claim to be all-encompassing are often offered by large corporate players who have acquired various SaaS platforms and connected through them in awkward and haphazard integrations. Unsurprisingly, these often don’t work effectively.

More commonly, lawyers and firms must resort to buying various platforms to meet their needs. This practice leads to excess costs and the real possibility of solutions not integrating. For those wanting to create a custom integration, costs will be higher still while the practicality of the integration is not certain.

Entering the current state of legal tech is Lawcus. Lawcus is an intuitive, workflow-focused law practice management software that’s especially useful for productivity focused law firms with well-defined systems and processes. It’s an … … weiterlesen →

By Shawn Arnold and Clayton Romero, co-founders, CodexTen

E-Discovery is a critical process that begins at the onset of litigated matters and involves the exchange of information between parties involved in a lawsuit or other legal action.

All Discovery is E-Discovery

Since the 1500’s when English Law codified discovery, today, all discovery is e-discovery. “eDiscovery” is merely the extension of the well-established discovery process to any Electronically Stored Information (ESI) that an organization might possess – email messages, voicemails, presentations, word processing files, spreadsheets, social media posts and all other relevant communication or information that might be useful in a legal action. The amount of electronic information attached to cases today can be mind boggling.

Whether your firm is working on a smaller case to a headline-grabbing global legal action, firms cannot ignore the importance of eDiscovery. In fact, a 2013 white paper by Osterman Research, Inc. 1 stated … … weiterlesen →

“Is Code Law?”

Von tech-blogger | 2021-11-10 - 00:31 |2021-11-10 Import
Kommentare deaktiviert für “Is Code Law?”

By Tian Ma

In “Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace”, Lawrence Lessig famously coined the term “code is law” (Lawrence Lessig, Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace [1998]). While the term has been interpreted and appropriated in countless ways, a deeper reading reveals Lessig’s actual argument. By “code is law”, Lessig did not in fact propose that code and law were epistemologically identical. Rather, by dismissing assumptions behind the idea that the cyberspace was inherently a creature of freedom and liberty, Lessig sought to expose the capacity for regulation which code shared with law. Lessig argued that code regulates the cyberspace just as how law regulates meat-space societies, and can serve as an additional medium for the law to indirectly influence behaviour in the cyberspace.

Fast forward two decades, and Lessig’s then stark warnings of code’s regulatory potential would barely raise an eyebrow today. The Internet protocol, despite … … weiterlesen →
