Legal Tech Startups
<p>According to the online database of <a href="https://techindex.law.stanford.edu/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>CodeX </strong>— The Stanford Center for Legal Informatics</a> currently more than <strong>700 startups</strong> are attempting to disrupt the legal industry worldwide, some of them in Germany.</p>
<p>The number of venture capital funded legal tech startups in 2016 compared to 2011 <a href="http://legal-tech-blog.de/warning-to-law-firms-the-uberization-of-law-is-comingand-fast" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>increased by a factor of 10</strong></a> and is steadily increasing. Big legal tech hubs have been formed in the <strong>Silicon Valley, </strong>New York,<strong> </strong>Toronto and <strong>London</strong>, which are now being joined by additional tech-heavy clusters in places like Australia, <strong>Germany</strong>, Sweden, Finland, Estonia and Asia.</p>
<p>Across those legal tech hotspots, the developments and patterns of technology and business models differ. Even though there is an increasingly active <strong>legal entrepreneurship scene in Germany</strong>, there are still far fewer legal tech startups and lower adoption rates among law firms and corporate legal departments than in the United States.</p>
