In the legal tech world, language isn’t the only thing that can get lost in translation. Heads of innovation at international law firms say that launching legal tech across different countries isn’t always as simple as installing software. Bringing new products to different countries can oftentimes mean tailoring them to a new region’s laws, data regulations and language. There are some tools, however, that more easily cross borders than others.

“There’s no way you could design a product around global law because there is no global law,” said Tom Gummer, innovation manager of Kennedys Law, which recently expanded its KLAiM virtual lawyer platform to its Latin America clients.
