Law 2.0: Intelligent Architecture for Transactional Law

Abstract

On Friday, August 13, 2010, the Silicon Flatirons Center convened leaders from the legal, academic, and software related fields to discuss recent and future developments in transactional law due to changes in technology (the "Roundtable"). The Roundtable analyzed how accelerating adoption of technological "enablers" is qualitatively affecting business models for the provision of transactional legal services. Participants saw some novel business model innovations as "disruptive," and others as "sustaining," but in the aggregate the Roundtable participants agreed that the practice of transactional law is undergoing notable, significant and irreversible change.
