Learned Hands is a web application developed by the Stanford Legal Design Lab in collaboration with the Suffolk LIT Lab and with support from the Pew Charitable Trusts. The app creates a tagged record with stories of people talking about their legal problems. This tagged dataset can then be used to develop machine learning models + a natural language processing classifier that can automatically detect problems in people`s text. The app allows many lawyers, law students, and other members of the public to read people`s stories about possible legal issues (from the online forum Reddit/LegalAdvice, where people have consented and the stories are all anonymized). In this book, I advocate a design-driven approach to legal innovation. Design is the way to generate promising ideas on how to improve legal services and then develop them quickly and efficiently. Hi Margaret! I graduated in law and became a UX designer. One day I searched for “Law and UX Design” and found your website. I love your idea of “Legal Design”.
I would be interested in participating in design projects related to legal services. I hope to hear from you! Over the past five years, the Legal Design Lab has focused on improving the way people find legal aid online. We have built key data infrastructure for research and development, contributed to innovative AI and digital analytics initiatives, and guided cohorts of practitioners through significant improvements to their court and legal aid websites. Jose joined the lab as the first full-time fellow to work on a year-long design project around new forms of dispute resolution. During his fellowship, he also led workshops and courses on new business models, process mapping, logic and arguments, and design research methods that have been brought to justice. He is Director of the Center for Innovation in Law at Sergio Arboleda University in Colombia and co-founder of Lexter, a legal technology company in Colombia.Previously, he was a senior partner in the M&A practice of Posse Herrera Ruiz (Colombia), partner in the international arbitration practice of Skadden Arps. Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP in London and Legal Affairs Officer in the Legal Affairs Division of the World Trade Organization. Legal Aid Dashboard: This lab website guides legal aid website administrators through the key steps to improve their website.
Check your technology, design, content, and search ranking. Follow our guides to improve in all four areas. This site provides tools, tips and rankings to better empower legal aid and court websites to serve the public. I am now researching for my Governance Innovation Report for Graduate Studies at Ateneo de Manila University – Philippines, I decided to include the Design Thinking/Human-Centered Approach as one of my frameworks. I am interested in attending your workshop/seminar (public or private) as it will be of great help in my profession as a legal advisor. I look forward to helping more clients in need, promoting a justice system that is more accessible to all, and improving legal aid services in our province.” Please be an instrument of change through Design Thinking. Thank you very much. Natural Disaster Legal Aid: The lab is developing a natural disaster legal aid app, Flood Proof, to help Louisiana residents publish headlines for their homes so they can receive disaster relief and find legal aid. Navocado is a web-based platform for creating and publishing better legal process guides with visual and interactive step-by-step triage and process guidance. She has been working with the Legal Design Lab for the past three years on projects such as creating the Navocado platform to train pro bono lawyers in new areas, improving the accessibility of online legal aid, and optimizing Internet search engines for legal queries.
This book sets out an agenda for innovation in legal services using practical, agile, and user-centric methodologies to make the legal system clearer, more efficient, more user-friendly, and more user-friendly. It describes what it means for lawyers to take a designer`s approach to solving problems. We create flyers and posters that visually explain how to navigate complex court cases. We design them in partnership with the courts and judges. In this track, our work aims for a near future where people can go online, ask search engines or social media about their life problem, and receive local, authoritative and user-friendly legal assistance.
