Innovation Attorney
Lawyer who speaks the language of Tech X Techie who understands the law
I am a dual-qualified lawyer, with a keen interest in law and technology, and competition law. I qualified as an Associate in the competition law practice at HSF and am a solicitor advocate with Higher Rights of Audience in England and Wales. I am interested in how technology is changing the practice of law. As an Innovation Attorney at Latham and Watkins, I have been at the forefront of exploring GenAI applications for legal uses cases and client experiments. I have also advised clients on legal and regulatory issues related to their use of AI.

A ChatGPT-style interface that does not give legal advice — it simply: • asks structured questions to capture key facts, • guides the user to upload relevant documents, • organises those documents and highlights key issues of law/fact as prompts, • and produces a lawyer-ready briefing “docket” for the pro bono adviser. It can be used directly by the client or by a pro bono intake coordinator on the client’s behalf. Important caveat: there’s a lot more work needed to make this truly clinic-ready. For now, I’ve only been able to cater for housing law issues in England & Wales, based on my own experience and accumulated “clinic wisdom” about common queries, question flows, and document checklists.
