Richard Granat offers a survey of new legal industry start-ups that, despite not being law firms, are drastically affecting clients’ expectations of services. IT-based ventures see the legal services industry as “ripe for disruption,” as law firms have failed to take advantages of IT and automation tools thus far. Granat looks to these legal industry startups to examine what types of tools deserve investment, what we can learn from the successes and failures of these ventures, and whether we’re seeing real signs of change in legal services, or a mere facelift.
