Episode 142 - The Data Driven Legal Practice – Fact, Fiction or Fantasy?

In this podcast, Terri Mottershead, Executive Director at the Centre for Legal Innovation explored whether or not it is possible to create a Data Driven Legal Practice with data gurus David Adason, Head of Innovation, Senior Lawyer, Aptum Legal; Denise Doyle, Legal Operations Consultant; and Matt Farrington, Lawyer + Legal Technologist, Juno Legal.

Topics covered in this session included:

• Why legal data is so much more than process – mining the data gems for true added value
• How legal organisations can start (and end) the process of demystifying data
• How data and metrics are related and why the connection matters
• The emerging gap in data application in law firms vs in-house legal departments and why it matters
• What the future will look like for legal organisations that don’t embrace data
