Legal Innovation & Tech Fest - David Lisitsa

🎙️ 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗮𝘄 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗺𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗮 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸. 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝘆 𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲. At LEGAL INNOVATION & TECH FEST, our host Roni Millard, Founder and Health & Wellness Consultant at The Wellbeing Edge sat down with David Lisitsa, Director of NewLaw.com — the advisory many firms turn to when they need someone on their side of the table. In an age of noise: every vendor pitching, every AI tool a saviour, every consultant with a deck… Newlaw cuts through it. Firms come to Newlaw with a problem — or hand them the keys and ask Newlaw to find the problems and solve them. Either way, the brief is the same: Help the firm stay competitive with the modern client. Newlaw is effectively a fully outsourced legal operations, project management and design function. The scope runs end-to-end: ▪️ Stack selection — choosing the platforms that will actually support the firm, not the loudest vendor in the room ▪️ Implementation & training — getting tools into the hands of fee-earners and making them stick ▪️ Marketing — positioning, digital presence, growth ▪️ Intake & client onboarding — frictionless, compliant, fast ▪️ AML & risk — built into the workflow, not bolted on ▪️ Precedent automation — turning expert lawyers’ work into leverage ▪️ Reporting & data — so firm leaders actually know what’s happening ▪️ Workflow design — the operational layer that makes everything else work ▪️ AI implementation — deep expertise, real deployments Platform-agnostic by design — firms come to Newlaw regardless of which stack they’re on or moving to: 🔹 Practice management: Clio, Actionstep, Smokeball - Legal Software, LEAP Legal Software, Yao, LOGICFIRM SL, Thomson Reuters 🔹 Document management: NetDocuments, iManage, Bundledocs 🔹 CRM & business platforms: HubSpot, Zoho, Hivelight 🔹 AI & emerging tools: Parachute, Harvey, Legora and others — including local, on-premise deployments for firms where client confidentiality is non-negotiable David's view: “𝘛𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘭𝘢𝘸 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘪𝘯 𝘥𝘪𝘴𝘨𝘶𝘪𝘴𝘦.” Firms shouldn’t be sold a stack. They should buy an outcome — then bring in the experts to land it. 💥 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁’𝘀 𝗰𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗺 𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘄? #PeopleInLegal #LegalTech #AIinLaw #LegalOperations #WorkflowAutomation #LawFirms #FutureOfLaw #LegalInnovation #ChangeManagement
