Legal Tech companies are generally startups founded with the purpose of disrupting the traditionally conservative legal market. According to TechCrunch, as of December 2014, "legal technology is booming, with companies attempting to disrupt the legal space at every level and from every angle" and Forbes noted in February 2015 that there were “hundreds of legal startups popping up all over the US and Europe”. Legal technology traditionally referred to the application of technology and software to help law firms with practice management, document storage, billing, accounting and electronic discovery. Since 2011, Legal Tech has evolved to be associated more with technology startups disrupting the practice of law by giving people access to online software that reduces or in some cases eliminates the need to consult a lawyer, or by connecting people with lawyers more efficiently through online marketplaces and lawyer-matching websites. The legal industry is widely seen to be conservative and traditional, with Law Technology Today noting that "in 50 years, the customer experience at most law firms has barely changed". Reasons for this include the fact law firms face weaker cost-cutting incentives than other professions (since they pass disbursements directly to their client) and are seen to be risk averse (as a minor technological error could have significant financial consequences for a client). However, the growth of the hiring by businesses of in-house counsel and their increasing sophistication, together with the development of email, has led to clients placing increasing cost and time pressure on their lawyers. In addition, there are increasing incentives for lawyers to become technologically competent, with the American Bar Association voting in August 2012 to amend the Model Rules of Professional Conduct to require lawyers to keep abreast of "the benefits and risks associated with relevant technology", and the saturation of the market leading many lawyers to look for cutting-edge ways to compete. The exponential growth in the volume of documents (mostly email) that must be reviewed for litigation cases has greatly accelerated the adoption of technology used in eDiscovery, with elements of machine language and artificial intelligence being incorporated and cloud-based services being adopted by law firms. Investment in Legal Tech is predominantly focused in the United States with more than $254 million invested in 2014 in the United States, however there is significant growth worldwide. Stanford Law School has started CodeX, the Center for Legal Informatics, an interdisciplinary research center, which also incubates companies started by law students and computer scientists. Some companies that have come out of the program include Lex Machina and Legal.io.

DISCO brings together lawyers to fix legal technology, by automating tasks that don't require legal judgment, and making it easy to complete the things that do.

In einer Zeit, in der IT-Unternehmen zu den größten Mandanten von Kanzleien zählen, stellen sich auch Juristen Fragen wie: Was machen die da eigentlich? Wie funktionieren Server und Domain? Wie wird eine Website entwickelt? Und was ist dieses „lean“, das man ständig hört? Mit der Veranstaltung "Coding for Lawyer" bieten die Bucerius-Studenten Patrick Häde (Jg. 2014) und Jan Kothe (Jg. 2013) ihren Kommilitonen eine Einführung in IT-Themen speziell für Juristen – in der man sich auch im Programmieren ausprobieren kann. Das Thema "Digitalisierung des Rechtsmarkts – Legal Technology" und die Integration passender Formate in das Curriculum steht an der Bucerius Law School weit oben auf der Agenda. #BuceriusLegalTech #LegalTech #LawTech
