Legal Technology to Expand Access to Justice – Q&A with Casetext’s Jake Heller – JD Supra

"It is our responsibility to make sure the technology we develop is in the hands of those who can use it to expand access to justice..."

We recently checked in with Casetexts co-founder & CEO, Jake Heller, after news that the legal research platform (and JD Supra partner) is offering free access to their new brief automation technology, Compose, for the summer.

A: Compose is litigation automation technology we launched in February of this year that automates rote tasks in brief writing, so that lawyers can focus on strategy and persuasion.

Weve found that attorneys using Compose are able to draft well-supported briefs in 1/4th the time. Compose enables the attorney to add arguments and legal standards to a draft in a click, and use Composes Parallel Search technology to automatically add case law that matches the attorneys facts. Attorneys using Compose say that it makes them less likely to miss an argument, and enables them to find better authorities to cite.

A: Yep. Were providing free logins for attorneys who would like to use Compose to assist in drafting Title VII briefs. Attorneys can sign up for free access at https://compose.law/title-vii/.

A: We were thrilled with the Supreme Courts recent decision (in Bostock v. Clayton County) and wanted to do something meaningful to celebrate. Our hope is that access to this technology will empower the attorneys who are on the ground in the fight against discrimination.

A: We want to be part of making it the norm and not the exception for legal technology companies to be active voices in social justice issues.

It is our responsibility to make sure the technology we develop is in the hands of those who can use it to expand access to justice, particularly to marginalized and disadvantaged communities.
