I want to see legal tech companies do well. I genuinely believe that introducing technology to replace boring, tedious and inefficient tasks is going to make being a lawyer a more satisfying career path. Which is why I get frustrated when I meet in-house counsels who aren’t as up to date on legal tech as I would like them to be. Last week at the Apttus Accelerate conference in San Francisco, I had such an encounter. But, if you’re hoping for a rant about how the legal industry is behind the times, stop reading because I will only disappoint you. In fact, my big take away from the conference was that corporate legal is ready to embrace new software and technology.
