The American Bar Association’s ABA Journal has just announced its seventh annual “Legal Rebels” roster. As usual, many of the winners are addressing “computational law” projects, tackling ways to streamline legal processes via tech.

Among the 11 members of the class of 2015:

• Ray Gallo, San Rafael, Calif., who created Leverage, a Web-based app that automates “much of the administrative work of mass actions. Leverage handles client sign-ups, initial interviews, document requests, communication and more,” wrote Lorelei Laird.

• Michael Hollander, staff attorney, Community Legal Services of Philadelphia, who uses “his development skills to modernize pro bono legal services for low-income Philadelphians,” wrote Jason Tashea.  Hollander created a generator that cuts petition-drafting time by from three hours to one.

• V. David Zvenyach, former general counsel for the Counsel of the District of Columbia, inspired by area legal hackers, helped navigate the politics and copyright challenges needed to create an unofficial online version of the  D.C. Code, Victor Li explained.

• Kyle Rimel, court technology systems manager at the Mohave County Superior Court, used technology to literally bridge a gap in access to justice. “If you lived in far northwest Mohave County, Arizona, it might take more than an hour to get to the nearest court building in Colorado City, and you’d have to drive into Utah to get there,” wrote Stephanie Francis Ward. The tech team created a kiosk (with videos) at a DMV, enabling citizens to access courtooms and make appearances, pay fines, get forms and file, she explained.  They also created Internet chat lines and other audio-video equipment to provide access to court services.

• Tanina Rostain, professor and co-director of the Center for the Study of Legal Profession at Georgetown Univeristy Law Center, has developed and teach “Technology, Innovation and Legal Practice.” Students develop apps designed to make “the justice system accessible to one and all,” wrote Terry Carter. The course includes a competition of four teams that include students, advocates and public interest lawyers. It’s become so popular that agencies, including the U.S. Department of Justice, send in requests (and consult with students).
