I quit my stable law firm job in 2014. It was a hard decision at the time. I wanted to see if I could build a business doing law differently… During my law firm days I always thought that it should be possible to deliver legal services in a dramatically more efficient way. But it felt like the “billable hour” always prevented that. What gets measured, gets improved - and billable hours was always the top metric. For me, it’s one of the biggest reasons why law lags behind other sectors in the impact technology has made to date. So, together with Chris O'Sullivan (he’s an amazing software developer), I started to create legal tech businesses to try to turn things upside down. Our first company was Lexoo. Which wasn't easy - turns out I had a lot to learn! But over the years we raised a number of VC rounds, pivoted the company twice, and ultimately sold to Kalexius. Now Chris and I are running and scaling a leading Legal AI company: DraftPilot. DraftPilot enables lawyers to create accurate contract mark-ups in 10 minutes, whilst staying completely in control. All right from MS Word. DraftPilot is used by leading in-house legal teams, ALSPs and law firms around the world. Get in touch if you'd like to give it a go!
