Sona began her career as an M&A and patent litigation attorney at a BigLaw firm. She left her secure job to create an AI contract negotiation startup called Pincites with her sister Maryan, a former Facebook and GitHub engineer (and yes, Mom was HR). The two went through Y Combinator, built a Word add-in for AI-powered redlining and playbooks, grew a loyal customer base, and ultimately got acquired by Filevine, which happened to be one of their best customers. After the acquisition, Sona and Mariam are now both at Filevine, and Pincites was rebranded to Lois, Filevine’s approach to enterprise knowledge, orchestration, and AI agents for legal drafting.

Throughout the conversation, we discovered that Sona almost didn’t leave her career, the pros and cons of working with family, what the acquisition felt like, the feedback received from trusted colleagues, and her thoughts on confidently making decisions.

Get to know Sona, her founder journey, what Filevine is up to, and the Bay Area trains in Episode 152.

After 20,000 completed divorces in a decade, Hello Divorce has saved Americans $450 million in legal fees.

Adversarial. Expensive. Exhausting. Three words that politely describe our understanding of divorce (unless you’ve been through one yourself, your adjectives might be… well, less polite). Erin Levine, CEO and Founder of Hello Divorce, has spent a decade trying to make divorce less awful, less costly, and less mentally straining for consumers. Since Nick invests in Hello Divorce, get ready for some entrepreneurial insights and witty banter.

Erin’s journey to reaching her business goals wasn’t always smooth sailing. Her candidly spoken obstacles include VC rounds that “reset the clock” every time, an early subscription model that consumers found inauthentic, an AI agent that started gaslighting potential clients, and a breast cancer diagnosis that forced her to slow growth and focus on margins. Despite the hurdles, she knew her company’s value and how it legally helped spouses who are seeking a new beginning.

Hello Divorce now operates in all 50 states, 3,100+ county courts, and 20,000 completed divorces. Erin developed a subsidiary real estate brokerage that stops divorcing homeowners from making financially catastrophic mistakes. Lastly, because we’re not in the business of spoiling episodes, she pivoted to employee benefits as a distribution channel serving many recognizable employers. Erin’s decisions have left 97% of customers feeling positive about the result of their finalized divorce and earned a 4.5/5 review score.

Listen to Erin’s why behind Hello Divorce, her personal testimony battling breast cancer, and how her lessons became the building blocks for a better version of her company in Episode 151!

Did You Know…

6 million car accidents and 2 million injury claims happen every year.

Yet even the busiest expert witnesses can only cover a fraction of a percent of those cases. How does AI fit into automotive expert witness work? Can a single picture of a car dent identify the speed of impact, or whether anyone was actually injured? Musculoskeletal Biomechanics expert witness Dr. Rami Hashish built Silent Witness to solve the problem.

Rami’s Doctorate in Physical Therapy and PhD in Musculoskeletal Biomechanics from USC steered him into the expert witness world and led him to a decade of being retained over a thousand times in personal injury and accident cases. Simultaneously, he founded and sold an AI medical records summarization company called Parrot. Throughout his journey, he kept asking himself why expert-level intelligence only arrives at the end of a case.

With his new venture, Silent Witness, the platform uses a proprietary mathematical vision model to analyze vehicle damage photos, quantify deformation, and calculate the change in speed, all in a fraction of the time it takes to blink. It models human motion inside the vehicle and predicts expected injuries, factoring in the plaintiff’s height, weight, and pre-existing conditions. The best part? Every case is reviewed and signed off by a PhD-level scientist to ensure the final expert witness report is defensible in court. Silent Witness brings this expert-level intelligence throughout the entire case.

Hear about Rami’s experience as an expert witness, how AI should be used in his industry, and detailed explanations about Silent Witness in Episode 150!

Since childhood, Josh knew he wanted to be a lawyer. After working at Shearman & Sterling in the capital markets practice, he grew frustrated with the manual “circle up” processes and late-night pricing supplements. Josh compared capital markets lawyers to sculptors, but instead of chiseling the marble, they spend half their day mining for it. Verifying hundreds of facts across prospectuses created unnecessary risk and consumed billable hours. The solution to this problem is Statera.

Inspired by his self-built Excel VBA tool, Statera’s platform automates the grueling “circle up” process, cutting due diligence time by 80%! Rather than implementing pure agentic workflows, its self-deterministic AI foundations eliminate hallucination risks. Statera assists junior associates with tedious tasks unique to the capital markets industry, so they can focus on the work that seals the deals.

Josh’s insight on the identity shifts leaving BigLaw, his goals for Statera, and his take on the legal tech industry are now available in Episode 149.

After growing up in Vietnam, Nam moved to the United States to study the intersection of linguistics and computer science at UCLA. He then did NLP research, worked in Southeast Asian fintech, and studied at Stanford Law with Dr. Megan Ma, researching supervisory AI agents. Through this research, he discovered an urgent market need: truthsystems.

truthsystems is a software startup that flags noncompliant AI use in regulated industries. Nam and co-founder Anh (Alex) Mac decided to target law firms first because governance in legal can’t be a generic solution. Every matter has its own rules from outside counsel, emphasizing the importance of matter-level context. Coming from a tech background with a deep understanding of AI, their goal is to show legal professionals how to leverage AI to be more efficient while mitigating risk. For example, Charter is their browser extension and desktop app that monitors every prompt sent to Harvey, Claude, and Legora. It proactively redirects attorneys before sensitive information lands in the wrong place.

Nam opens up about what’s next for truthsystems (a new product perhaps?), how data infrastructure beats model selection, and the cultural differences behind building tech in Episode 148.

Summer is a busy season, so we recapped the latest episodes of LegalTechLIVE for you to enjoy! From founder journeys to buyer insights, Nick and Hana captured these stories so you can stay in the know. Check out Episodes 140-147!

Episode 140 highlights Dorna Moini, our first returning guest on LegalTechLIVE, who updates us on Gavel and the company’s recent acquisition by Relativity! Gavel underwent several changes outside of the rebrand. The company now has AI-native products to complement its original document automation service, and Dorna hired a CTO to help cement Gavel's position in the AI-forward legal tech industry. A lot has changed in nearly 100 episodes!

Ian O’Brien and Dory Lord, co-founders of CounselPro, are our guests on Episode 141. After going through a divorce and experiencing the tediousness of financial document management, Ian built a tool to make it easier. With his engineering background and Dory’s marketing skills, the pair created a platform that sifts through thousands of financial statements and provides a court-ready output.

You may know him as the Closing Folders founder, but Episode 142 highlights Gordon Cassie’s latest venture, Eno PDF (Eno). Attorneys can’t afford to communicate paraphrases of the law to clients, so this “fuzzy Control+F” tool helps you find what you need in your own source material at 10x speed. It’s evidence-based AI that’s locally run on your desktop with zero retention, and something Nick wishes he had for his master’s classes.

Jennifer Waite, Chief Knowledge and Information Officer at Arnall Golden Gregory LLP, is our MVP of Episode 143! She kindly yet candidly shares her take on understanding AI strategy, her criteria for evaluating and retaining tools, and what she really doesn’t want to hear or see in vendor pitches and communication. Want to know how a buyer thinks? Then this is the episode for you!

Who knew a LinkedIn post and X exchanges could kick off a new podcast episode! Episode 144 features Jonathan Watson, Chief Technology Officer at Clio. You’ll hear about his unconventional path to engineering and how businesses can protect themselves from attackers using LLMs to hack systems. Maybe it’s time to enable multi-factor authentication on your devices!

If you’ve been reading it wrong like Hana was before this episode launched, it’s pronounced “Cynthia,” not “Syn-theia.” And Episode 145 highlights its founder, Horace Wu! Syntheia is a transactional lawyer’s dream. It breaks down legal documents into clauses, subclauses, and definitions and surfaces differences and risks across multi-document comparisons.

The seventh American Legal Technology Awards are around the corner, and co-founder Tom Martin gives us all the details in Episode 146! Learn about the event’s origin story, memorable moments from years past, the sponsors who make it possible, and how it highlights innovators shaping the legal industry. Also get your tickets now if you haven’t already!

Jasmine Singh, General Counsel at Ironclad, talks to us about the GC life and more in Episode 147. She’s a former litigator turned in-house professional with deep experience as a buyer and vendor of legal technology. We discuss why she left BigLaw, how in-house roles let her use her “superpowers,” perception management, and what she’s looking for when buying legal technology.

Jasmine started her career as a complex commercial litigator for Kirkland & Ellis and realized she wanted to use her “superpowers” of charisma, wit, and people-first instincts every day rather than waiting for the right strategic moment. Courageously leaving without a plan, she became a spin class instructor (which she loved!) and eventually landed roles at 24 Hour Fitness, Pinterest, Patreon, and her first GC position at Binti.

As Ironclad’s GC, Jasmine’s is the primary legal advisor for the company and responsible for leading the legal team. For her, finding the right tools is about choosing the right partner, integration planning needs to account for the times things work and break, and AI is a sparring partner that pressure-tests her own work. Lawyers are always in the driver’s seat of what they produce, but embracing tech competently breeds an efficient in-house team, a quality that’s the opposite of a “cost center” stereotype!

Jasmine names the problem no one’s solved yet, details what kills deals with vendors fast, shares where she trusts AI in legal work, and reveals the most underrated skill for running an in-house team in this episode.

Pricing: $150 - Early Bird Discount / $250 - Standard

Tom Martin, CEO of LawDroid, adjunct professor at Suffolk University Law School, and co-founder of the American Legal Technology Awards, talks to Nick and Hana about the seventh annual awards ceremony happening this October in Boston. Highlighting what makes our industry so great, we finally get the origin story of the awards show we all know and love!

A nomination for the British Legal Technology Awards in London inspired the American Legal Technology Awards, because the US legal tech community also deserves recognition. The collaboration that started with Tom, Patrick Palace, and Cat Moon grew into what many now call “Law Prom.” This black-tie event creates a virtuous cycle of recognizing innovators who do good, real, and purposeful work that inspires others to do the same. Tom shares how nominees are chosen, the judging process, and the moments that make the event unforgettable.

And last but not least, Tom thanks sponsors such as Clio, ARAG Legal Insurance, ADM, and Practising Law Institute for their support of the American Legal Technology Awards.

For more details, heartfelt memories, and potential category ideas for the future (perhaps an “Up-and-Comer” or “Newbie” award??), tune in to this episode. And buy your ticket while the Early Bird Discount is still available!

After nearly 15 years as an M&A lawyer across Australia and New York, he left law to build an events discovery app, only to fold 6 months later when Facebook and Google launched. Call it fate or divine intervention, an encounter with a German NLP company that had won a contract to review 10,000 leases with no lawyers on the team sparked a conversation about what became Syntheia (pronounced “Cynthia”).

Using fixed rules and outputs, Syntheia deterministically extracts and structures transactional legal documents, breaking them into clauses, subclauses, and definitions. It offers multi-document comparison that surfaces differences and risk across a set of documents. Syntheia is a bootstrapped and profitable company, but it’s exploring the idea of being acquired or going through a first funding round.

Watch Episode 145 to hear Horace’s founder origin story, how Syntheia helps transactional lawyers, and his prediction on how a market correction is coming to legal AI.

Before Jonathan became the CTO of a leading legal tech powerhouse, he worked as a carpenter, internet cafe owner, and professional gamer! But to stay on topic here, he served in leadership roles at Shopify and Zynga, which helps him in his current position at Clio. Jonathan brings a unique perspective to an evolving topic: how large language models (LLMs) are changing the nature of cyberattacks. The conversation started with the NSA/Cyber Command’s testimony suggesting adversaries can compromise systems in hours, rather than weeks. So how does this happen? How should law firms and companies like Clio defend themselves?

To put it simply, as the true insight is in the episode, Jonathan implores law firms to implement best practices like multi-factor authentication, no shared logins, and choosing vendors with real security investment. For startups, good development hygiene is paramount from day 1. Password vaults, data segmentation, and early investment in observability will set them up for success. As for Clio, a “breach-first” mindset helps Jonathan stay ahead of the vulnerabilities to monitor and protect company and client data.

Jonathan dives deeper into the topics briefly mentioned in this description, so watch or listen to learn about vulnerabilities, prompt injections, what attackers actually want, and how to limit risk.

Jennifer started her career as a law librarian. She briefly practiced law afterwards and now leads AI and innovation strategy at an Am Law 200 firm. Despite the seemingly unconventional path, she argues the opposite: librarians are well suited to knowledge management roles, as they’re trained in taxonomies, data organization, and customer service. In her seven years working for AGG, she treats AI strategy as a “living framework” that’s reviewed quarterly and looks for tools that fit her firm's needs.

So, what does this mean for vendors looking to have firms like AGG as a client? We won’t spoil that part of the episode, but Jennifer shares several examples of do’s and don’ts for vendor pitches and what she values most when evaluating and retaining tools. The “AI creates less work” sentiment is the antithesis for people like Jennifer. As a vendor, it’s in your best interest to approach Jennifer with all the information at the ready. Whatever you do, DON’T cold call or email her.

Jennifer’s insight is now available in Episode 143, so watch or listen to stories about vendor relationship experiences, her role in knowledge management, and tools she’s looking for now.

Gordon was a corporate lawyer in Toronto, closing deals in boardrooms with the occasional champagne in hand. After making a niche tool that automates legal transaction processes, he created another product that anyone with a PDF can use, turning every “I know I’ve read that somewhere" into “I know exactly where that is.” That product is Eno.

Most AI tools answer your questions with generated summaries and vague citations, but Eno is what Gordon calls “evidence-based AI.” It’s a zero-retention desktop app that surfaces the actual document snippets on screen so you can find what you’re looking for in your source material at 10x speed. Think of it as a “fuzzy Control+F.” Because attorneys can’t afford to communicate paraphrases of the law to clients, this distinction is critical. Gordon’s goal is to get another business acquired and make Eno big enough to be in a crossword puzzle!

Watch the episode to get in-depth insight about Gordon, why locally run apps are becoming legal tech’s latest trend, and how he’s deciding to run Eno in comparison to Closing Folders.

“And so.. we wanted to essentially be able to provide this same level of capability that people would’ve paid thousands and thousands of dollars for a forensic analyst.” - Dory Lord

Anyone who has been divorced understands how strenuous it is to sift through years of financial documents, as if the divorce itself wasn’t mentally taxing (pun intended). It’s the last thing people want to deal with, and now it’s a process that lawyers and forensic accountants can expedite! We’re highlighting CounselPro co-founders Ian O’Brien (CEO) and Dory Lord (CRO) in this episode.

After experiencing this exact issue himself, Ian looked for a simpler way to manage his financial statements but couldn’t find anything satisfactory. Through market research, he discovered a need to automate financial evaluation for family law and bankruptcy attorneys. With Dory’s marketing operations and legal tech background, and Ian’s engineering and marketing expertise, they joined forces to create CounselPro.

In Ian’s words, “CounselPro is so easy, even a lawyer can use it.” With its drag, drop, done interface, CounselPro’s platform ingests thousands of pages of financial documents. It'll organize PDFs, categorize every transaction, flag missing statement ranges, and allow attorneys to search and filter by merchant, date, account, and more. The output can withstand scrutiny, making it court-ready by design.

This episode covers Ian’s and Dory’s path to entrepreneurship, why they’re targeting solo practitioners and small law firms, the industries they want to reach next, and their vision for CounselPro’s future.

Her journey began in Big Law at Sidley Austin, where she worked on pro bono cases for domestic violence survivors as a litigator. Her time there sparked the idea for a document automation platform, which was later known as Documate. So, despite the risks of leaving a secure full-time job, she bet on herself and quit to pursue entrepreneurship.

Not long after launching Documate, she realized early on that the legal tech industry was headed toward an AI-centered direction. With the help of her team, investors, and a CTO with deep AI knowledge, Documate was rebranded to Gavel. The rebrand was a necessary move to encompass the added AI-native products that complement the original document automation service. And for those of you who know Dorna, you may have even participated in suggesting a name for the rebrand! All the decisions she’s made as a founder have paid off, and Gavel is now part of the legal AI platform, Relativity.

Hear from Dorna herself about how understanding her customers has helped her business grow, the benefits of staying agile, the hardest decisions she’s had to make as a founder, and her thoughts on the recent acquisition.

Hey readers, Hana and Nick here! We understand how busy a working professional’s life can be. Calendars stacked with meetings that could have been emails, looming deadlines, booking back-to-back flights to attend conferences, and don’t even get us started on fixing technical issues. Things add up, and the time to hear your favorite legal technology podcast dwindles. But you’re in luck! Here’s a recap of all the episodes since the relaunch.

Episode 132 announces the relaunch of the LegalTechLIVE podcast! Founder Nick Rishwain introduces his new co-host, Hana Zumout, a digital marketer with 7 years of experience in the legal technology space and the person behind the podcast’s rebrand.

Episode 133 highlights our first guest since LegalTechLIVE’s return, Nathan Walter, CEO of Briefpoint. His career as a litigator exposed him to how opposing counsel used discovery as “lawfare,” which inspired him to build Briefpoint. Nathan’s goal with Briefpoint is to “eliminate discovery off the face of the earth” by automating the discovery document drafting process. Briefpoint saves litigators’ time and brings justice to their clients.

Lindsay Kim Chung, CEO of TensorCase, is our guest in Episode 134. Most legal technology services cater to attorneys, but we rarely hear about tools for other legal professionals, like investigators. Before she became an entrepreneur, Lindsay was a lawyer and corporate investigator. She found herself facetiously commiserating with her colleagues, wishing there was an efficient way to manage evidence and draft reports. So, Lindsay built TensorCase, a “thinking partner” for investigators.

In Episode 135, Director of Policy at The Digital Chamber, Jonathan Schmalfeld, shared his experience in blockchain advocacy. He was an attorney specializing in trade secret litigation. As a crypto enthusiast himself, he entered the digital asset space professionally while working on NFT trademark and consumer protection cases. Jonathan now lobbies for policies, like the GENIUS Act, to Congress to make digital assets more accessible to the public.

Mathew Kerbis, a.k.a “The Subscription Attorney,” podcast aficionado, and Practi founder, talks to Nick and Hana about how AI is breaking the billable hour on Episode 136. Because tools like Harvey and Legora shorten the time it takes to complete legal work, the billable hour model isn’t ethically or financially sensible. Wanting to drive systemic change, Mathew built Practi, an easy-to-build subscription-based billing system for solo practice and small law firms.

Episode 137 features Chris Ford, co-founder and CXO of Legaltech Hub. His marketing expertise complements the entrepreneurial mind of CEO Nicole (Nikki) Shaver, who also happens to be his wife. We LOVE love in legal tech! LegalTech Hub has transformed from a COVID side project into a functioning media and insights business with 30+ team members, 3,000+ listed legal technology tools, and dozens of events led by Chris. He also shares priceless marketing advice founders should hear.

It’s not often we cover legal operations on the show, but we believe in highlighting all legal professionals. Episode 138 highlights Cheyenne Gabourel-Moseley, the Legal Operations Director at Rasa. After spending 21 years at LegalZoom, starting in customer service and finishing as director of an entire division, she left to join Rasa. Rasa helps people expunge their criminal records and provide freedom as a service. Cheyenne details the day-in-the-life of a legal operations professional.

Erich Dylus’ unique background as a programmer and solo-practice attorney helped him create CamoText. In Episode 139, he shares the obvious and latent privacy risks that AI poses, and how attorneys could inadvertently breach the attorney-client privilege. CamoText anonymizes personally identifiable information (PII), such as names, locations, and financial account details, in documents. Attorneys can then run the documents in their AI tool of choice.

As a solo-practice lawyer, Erich underwent the mind-numbingly mundane task of manually removing private data in his legal work. He noticed that the labor of wiping metadata and copy-pasting clean text into AI chats was the kind of friction that causes lawyers to ignore privacy steps. Erich wanted a way to expedite and preserve confidentiality. Luckily for him, he’s also a programmer.

The Python script he wrote became CamoText, a fully offline document app that detects and replaces PII (personally identifiable information) with placeholders. Names, email addresses, UUIDs, locations, finances, and other private information are camouflaged. And the best part? You can paste the sanitized version from CamoText into your AI tool of choice, with human review, of course.

Tune in to learn about less obvious privacy vectors, how CamoText also serves non-legal industries, and why offline apps offer security by simplicity.

Cheyenne spent 21 years at LegalZoom before joining Rasa. She started in customer service roles and worked her way up to director of an entire division. Within that time, she saw legal tech scale from Manila folders and FileNet to Salesforce and AI tools. After meeting her boss and the founder of Rasa, Noella Sudbury, she decided to leave her corporate job for a mission she couldn’t refuse.

Rasa’s goal is to help people expunge their criminal records, which is different from LegalZoom’s high-volume business formation. As Legal Operations Director, she navigates multiple counties across multiple states whose courts have different timelines and processes (that’s if they have a process). Her role brings about additional nuances compared to business operations, as people’s freedom is the service Rasa offers. What remains the same is how Cheyenne applies the same operational skills she learned in corporate to a public benefit corporation setting.

Get to know Cheyenne, understand legal operations and Rasa’s mission on a deeper level, and discover how she creates repeatable processes in this episode.

Chris entered the legal industry right out of college, selling document services to law firms in America. As his career progressed, he found himself in marketing roles and realized this was what he was meant to pursue. He landed a role at LexisNexis in Australia and met Nikki several years later.

What started as a COVID side project became the legal tech industry’s first full-scale solutions, media, advisory, and events company. While Nikki was working at Paul Hastings, she was frustrated by the lack of a consolidated, objectively truthful source of legal tech tools. So, they made one. Now, Legaltech Hub is a company of 30+ team members, 3,000+ tools listed, dozens of global events led by Chris, and a project involving lots of blood, sweat, and tears.

Watch or listen to Chris’ in-depth marketing advice, endearing sentiments toward Nikki, and future goals for Legaltech Hub.

With tools like Harvey and Paxton shortening the time it takes to execute legal work, billing by the hour doesn’t make sense, financially or ethically. The consequence is a decline in associates at law firms and the loss of priceless time with loved ones. Mathew saw an opportunity to increase attorneys’ revenue, close the access-to-justice gap, and drive systemic change.

Practi is not an AI service, but a company that exists because of AI. It provides an easy-to-build subscription-based billing infrastructure to solo and small law firms. The set-up alone takes less than 10 minutes, and it’s free! The billable-hour model doesn’t suit an AI-forward legal industry, but the subscription model fits right in.

Hear Mathew’s arguments for a subscription-based billing system, his founder story, and how he created a marketing ecosystem in this “name-drop” episode.
