Description

As we transition further into a COVID world facing additional restrictions and seeking to work more effectively, what does it mean to accelerate legal automation? With constant pressure to innovate in critical practice workflows while reducing costs within a highly regulated sector, it's crucial to acknowledge and not undervalue the preparation and training involved in supporting Artificial Intelligence (AI) digital transformation programs.

This session will separate fact from fiction and cite examples of how AI is orchestrating smarter, practical processes to embrace modern legal practices and GC departments.

This program was recorded as part of ALM's Legalweek 2021 Virtual Conference on April 13th, 2021.

Nicola Shaver

Managing Director of Innovation and Knowledge
Paul Hastings

Nicola Shaver, managing director, innovation and knowledge, at the law firm Paul Hastings, was recently named 2020 Innovative Leader of the Year in the International Legal Technology Association’s Distinguished Peer Awards. Not only was that, but the law firm where she oversees innovation initiatives named Innovator of the Year.

While a major honor for anyone in the field of law firm innovation, it is even more remarkable given that until just seven years ago, Shaver was a lawyer practicing media law in Australia with no connection to the field of law firm innovation. When she moved to Toronto for family reasons in 2014, she could find no work in her legal specialty, so took a job at Cassels Brock & Blackwell leading the firm’s innovation initiatives. She was immediately hooked.

After a stint at another Toronto firm, Stikeman Elliott, as director of knowledge management, she moved to Paul Hastings in New York in 2018, where she describes herself as “Dedicated to future-proofing law firms and accelerating the pace of positive change in the legal industry.” She is also founder of Legal Innovation and Design, a global membership group for anyone driving innovation initiatives in the commercial legal space, and publisher of the blog Tower of Babel.

In a year that has presented so many challenges for law firms, Shaver joins LawNext to discuss the innovation initiatives that helped her and her firm earn these awards. She also shares her career journey, her thoughts on innovation, and her perspectives on the pandemic’s impact on the legal profession.
