Disruption by Design: Technology for lawyers

Legal technology and its impact on the sector, or in other words, ‘Disruption by Design’, is the theme of BPP Law School’s Future Lawyer’s Innovation Conference (FLIC) next month. The topic reflects increasing concern among lawyers that professional training needs to cover legal technology or the profession will be short of crucial skills. The conference includes a hackathon, where students will be presented with an access to justice problem and must come up with a technological solution.

It takes place on 8 March at BPP’s Holborn Lecture Theatre, London. Keynote speakers include the Rt Hon Lord Keen.
