How technology could reshape litigation
An interview with Amanda Chaboryk on what's driving litigation funding and what the future holds for analytics technologies.
New technology has slowly been making inroads into law for years, from contract-review software to e-discovery tools. But with firms inclined to embrace technology more fully, they are beginning to explore ways of using historical data – whether in the public record or their internal data – to predict the outcomes of cases or offer more clarity on the costs associated with litigating a case. As the ability to assess the potential success of litigation gets more sophisticated, the litigation-funding market will be well placed to benefit from these new tools.
In our latest episode, we invited Amanda Chaboryk, the Disputes and Litigation Data Lead at Norton Rose Fulbright's London office, to tell us about her role in helping litigation teams leverage technology and where she sees the market going. A large part of her job focuses on strategic projects and honing legal technology to improve the delivery of legal services, particularly on complex legal projects. She has experience in project management, litigation finance, and data science. Chaboryk is also part of NRF Transform, the firm's global change and innovation program. She'll also be teaching a course at Kings College London, titled Legal Practice Technology.
