For those who have never attended LegalTech in New York, it is like so many other things in the US – big. The organisers of this conference, at which lawyers and legal professionals meet the providers of their IT technology, estimated that the 26th annual event, held at the end of January, was attended by more than 11,000 people over the three days, browsing more than 250 exhibitor stands and attending some of the 50 or so presentations.
As a director of a London-based computer forensics firm that supports a great deal of UK litigation, I was particularly interested in hearing how such matters are run in the US and what new directions, tricks and techniques may well be coming our way from the largest litigation market in the world.
