In 1 Day: FutureLaw Conference 2015

We rock and roll tomorrow, and it’s not too late to register and attend!

If you want more inspiration, check out the April 27  post on the Three Geeks and a Law Blog, where Greg Lambert says he’s excited about CodeX’s take on legal technology:

In 1 Day: FutureLaw Conference 2015 1
Greg Lambert

“In the past week I’ve talked with a number of people that have come out of Stanford University’s CodeX, the short name for The Stanford Center for Legal Informatics program. It may be the first time in a decade that I’ve actually gotten excited enough about legal information technology that I thought I need to quit my job immediately and find a way to get involved in these start ups coming out of California. The ideas coming out of CodeX are actually novel concepts, rather than what we’ve seen for many years of simply repackaging old ideas into cheaper, better, easier, or more accessible platforms. CodeX is having a FutureLaw Conference this week, and I’m sorry that I’m not going to be there to see first hand what is the latest technology being incubated in CodeX. ”

Lambert goes on to give a shout-out to three key exemplars:  Lex Machina, Ravel Law and Casetext.

His bottom line: “It will be interesting to see if there are ways that these powerhouses of idea generations will be able to team up with the mega information holders, whether that be governments or private holders, and really test the limits of how we conduct legal research in the future. I, for one, am excited to see what’s next.”

Like I said, it’s not too late to attend — grab your favorite vehicle:  feet, bicycles, trains, planes, whatever, and come join us tomorrow morning!  Can’t wait.
