Harry Jupp, Trainee Solicitor
Over the past six months I have gained a valuable insight into how technology can be applied within the legal industry to improve client services. I’ve learnt about the management of disruptive technologies and improved my understanding of design thinking and how this can translate into technological solutions for clients.
My highlight was having the opportunity to speak to a number of colleagues across the firm, from the Private Equity sector to the Business Development team, discussing potential barriers clients face, our ideas and how these can develop into pragmatic and effective solutions. This has given me a first-hand experience on how a legal tech solution can be pitched, funded and integrated within the firm and subsequently advertised to clients.
This course has enabled me to think critically about the application of technology in legal practice, and presenting our idea has helped improve my communication and presentation skills, which will be hugely valuable for both my role as a trainee and as I develop throughout my career
