Director of Legal Ops | Commercial Lawyer
I got into coding when my calculus teacher saw the programs I created on graphing calculators and urged me to take the AP Computer Science class. A few detours later and I ended up in law, but stayed involved with the tech side, spending a couple of years at an AI legal tech startup and now managing the tech stack, automations, etc in house. Vibe coding has rekindled my interest in coding now that the drudgery is stripped away, and the legal field is ripe for an explosion of tech advancements.
AskLegal is a Slackbot for in-house legal teams that handles the routine tasks automatically, so lawyers can focus on the work that actually needs them. It can: → Create and track legal tickets → Check ticket status in real time → Surface approved contract templates on demand → Answer policy and procedure questions from provided documentation → Create waiver requests (after first checking whether a waiver is necessary) The idea is simple: instead of emailing the legal team and waiting, internal clients just ask the bot. Less back-and-forth. Faster resolution. And the legal team gets fewer "what's the status of my ticket?" messages. This version is built around Monday.com for ticketing, but the same concept could be adapted for other workflows and platforms.
