You’re certainly right in saying that the law and law firms have been slow to adapt. There are many areas that are ripe for innovation; document management systems, e-signing documents etc.

And as you say, it’s hard to know where to look for startups in the legal sphere. I’ve found a really good site called http://www.lawhackers.co which lists all the legal-tech startups and what they do. Also, their newsletter is great for keeping up to date with the field.

I myself work for a legal-tech startup called https://www.lexoo.co.uk/ We focus on solving three problems that businesses face when trying to hire a lawyer:

1) there is no price transparency 2) it's hard to judge the quality of lawyers 3) It’s time consuming to get multiple quotes

We help businesses find great lawyers by getting them multiple quotes for their legal matter from specialist lawyers, so they can compare them side by side.

I hope that’s helpful!
