Back in April, I wrote about the kick-off of the third-annual round of nominations for the American Legal Technology Awards — one notable for the fact that it will be the first time the awards will be presented in-person since its inception.
The purpose of the awards is to honor those making a difference and to highlight examples of excellence in creative innovation and technology in the legal industry for the purposes of (1) expanding our understanding of what is possible, (2) encouraging a virtuous cycle of improvement, and (3) creating a more just society.
Well, now the finalists are in, chosen by a panel of 23 judges out of 225 submissions, and the winners will be announced at a formal awards gala, which will take place Oct. 9, 2022, on the eve of the Clio Cloud Conference, at the Gaylord Opryland Resort in Nashville.
So, without further ado, here are the finalists:
