Presenters
Fiona McLay, Lead AI Client Advisor, Thomson Reuters Legal AustraliaFiona has spent the past 25 years as a dispute resolution lawyer working across the legal industry in top tier, mid-tier, small firm, a NewLaw firm and in-house. She has an insider’s view as to how firms across the industry are actually using (or not using) tech. Long hours, inefficient processes and constant pressure to do more with less drove her to find ways to use tech to work more efficiently. With no budget, no IT support and (possibly because of) no innovation committee, she discovered how powerful a tech-enabled lawyer could be in litigation up against a much better resourced opponent. And with a significantly reduced risk of paper cuts. She regularly presents to lawyers on how to adopt new ways of working. She is the author of Tech Enabled Lawyer: to making the most out of the tools you have and spotting the tech you need.
