What we're about

Technology bustles ahead, but our legal tools and tech policy hardly reflect this. What gives? This monthly meetup challenges Legal Hackers to find creative solutions to some of the most interesting issues at the intersection of law and technology. Join us (https://www.meetup.com/DCLegalHackers/about/) as we tackle tough problems and create tangible solutions at a variety of interactive events, including: discussions, keynotes, demos, workshops (yes, coding), and quarterly hackathons. Our meetings will be aimed at creating proposed resolutions on the spot, so bring your brains and your portable computing devices! Come Slack with us! (dclegalhackers.slack.com)

Access to Justice Tech with Claudia Johnson

Needs a location

On Friday, August 12, 2022 DC Legal Hackers will be hosting an in-person talk on Access to Justice technologies by Claudia Johnson.

Claudia manages LawHelp Interactive, an award winning document assembly platform and training program at Pro Bono Net. In this role, Claudia made online forms a trusted go to innovation to increase access for those without lawyers, and works with hundreds of non-profits and courts to use online forms to increase the quantity and quality of services to those underserved.

Claudia serves on the Board of the Future of the Profession Initiative at Penn Law, Toll Center at Penn Law, Washington ACLU Board of Directors, and ATJ Tech Fellow Board of Advisors, and the Internet Legal Steering Committee at Stanford University. She received her law degree from University of Pennsylvania Law School L’97, and started her legal career as a Skadden Fellow in Philadelphia.
