Digitalisation is changing the legal industry. NKF is at the forefront of these developments and is always interested in adopting new tools to explore their application in our practice. Being a first mover, in 2019 NKF founded an internal LegalTech working group. The group consists of Partners, Associates, Junior Associates and representatives of our business services, such as IT, project, and office management. The LegalTech working group meets on a regular basis to discuss various topics related to LegalTech, focusing in particular on the following fields of activity:- Market observation and internal demand analysis
- Identification of potential solutions for NKF
- Execution of internal evaluation projects and implementation
- Being part of the LegalTech Community: memberships, participation in conferences and speaking engagements
- Organisation of internal and external events
