#57 - Slow Is Smooth, Smooth Is Fast: Learning to think like a startup with a Silicon Valley Lawyer turned Venture Capitalist, Andrew Goldner (GrowthX).

mercredi 7 septembre 2022 • Durée 01:08:23

Our guest today is Andrew Goldner. Andrew is a lawyer and Co-Founder & CEO of GrowthX - a venture capital fund based out of San Francisco.

Andrew’s resume doesn’t read like a typical VC Partner. Although Andrew started his career in New York, it wasn’t on Wall Street, nor was it in finance, or even as a startup founder.

Andrew started his journey as an internet lawyer, back when the internet was an emerging technology. Though successful by every measure, Andrew became restless after several years of practice. Specifically, he took issue with the fact that the legal profession emphasized the time spent, rather than the value added to their clients.

After some deliberation, Andrew decided to leave the firm and embarked on an eclectic journey that took him to DoubleClick (a startup eventually acquired by Google), Thompson Reuters (where he was Managing Director of Reuter News in Singapore of all places), and he even tried his hand as a New Your City restauranteur!

Eventually, all these roads lead him to found GrowthX, a venture capital fund dedicated to helping founders find product market fit and get investment ready for their Series A.

As you will hear, Andrew’s earned wisdom both as a lawyer and as a venture capitalist makes him an ideal guest for this show. Our conversation covers:

* Andrew’s journey from law to venture capital;

* Insights for lawyers working with startups (especially those lawyers who are risk averse);

* How the path to finding “product-market fit” is actually a formula; and

* Why “move fast and break things” is often the worst advice a founder can receive.

Whether you are a lawyer, startup general counsel, investor, or simply someone interested in learning how to grow a startup, Andrew drops plenty of “truth bombs” (a reference you will soon understand) that you won’t want to miss!

It was a pleasure having Andrew on the podcast and I hope you get as much out of this conversation as I know I did.

#48 - Lawyer SuperPowers and the Legal Tech Revolution: A conversation with Samuel Dahan (Queens), JP Couture (Ingenio) and Ryan Clements (UofC)

mercredi 1 décembre 2021 • Durée 47:24

It is tough to debate that the legal profession, as a whole, is behind the times.

Why?

Well...simply put, because we haven't been forced to change.

However, those days of complacency appear to be over.

Clients are demanding more transparency and fairness in pricing.

Lawyers are demanding modern tools to do their job more effectively.

And it seems that every other day you are hearing about some legal tech startup raising a big round of funding.

But what exactly can we expect from the technological revolution that it is upon us?

While there is no question there are advantages to be gained, there are also perils to be avoided.

Thankfully, the future of legal tech was the topic of conversation of one of our panels at our recent Goodlawyer Summit.

Our conversation covered many points including:

* How the legal profession can maintain its humanity while still embracing technological improvements.

* How lawyers and law firms can harness learnings from other traditional industries that have gone through a similar technological revolutions (ex: fintech and healthtech)

* And where the biggest hurdles lie in adopting new technology in our practices.

If you want to catch the full experience, make sure to watch the panel on our YouTube page:

As always, thanks for tuning in!

#47 First Choice, Second Thoughts: Why I chose to leave Big Law with Josh Weinberger, CLO of Goodlawyer

mardi 23 novembre 2021 • Durée 15:14

For those of you who regularly listen to the Future of Law podcast (and yes...there are a growing number of you), today’s show is a little different.

As many of you know, Goodlawyer recently put on our very first Summit. Over the next several weeks, we will be releasing some of the incredible conversations we were able to have right here on this podcast.

To lead us off, I could think of no better that my good friend, and Goodlawyer's Chief Legal Officer, Josh Weinberger.

Josh began his career in Big Law, and practiced at a major firm for over 5 years before taking the entrepreneurial leap to Goodlawyer.

Many who knew Josh were, at first, surprised by his decision to leave his venerated position at his firm.

By all accounts he had it made. He was a young, respected, making Big Law money, and was on a fast tract to become a partner (the gold standard in law).

However, despite his outward professional success, Josh knew something was missing.

During the Summit, Josh told his very intimate and powerful story about why he left Big Law to risk it all on this little but fast growing startup we call Goodlawyer.

We have already heard from many of you who deeply resonated with Josh's tale, and hope by releasing it here, it will inspire even more to reflect, and ultimately pursue a life aligned with your values.

On a final note, it is rare that I encourage people NOT to to listen to the podcast, but if you have a moment, I highly encourage you to click on the YouTube link below. Josh's talk has a few visual elements that pack a punch, and trust me wether you are a law student, or firmly on track to become partner at you law firm, it is well worth the time.

I hope you all get as much of of Josh’s talk as I did. Thanks for listening!

#46 Legal Tech Spotlight: A conversation with Ken Murphy, Founder and CEO of IRIS

mercredi 10 novembre 2021 • Durée 39:06

On the show this week, we are delighted to have on Ken Murphy, the Founder and CEO of IRIS.

Ken earned his law degree from Queen’s University in 1999, but instead of pursuing the traditional path of practicing at a law firm, Ken launched his own startup...just as the dot com bubble was about to burst, which needless to say made it a very difficult time to be a founder.

While Ken’s first start-up didn’t achieve the success he was hoping for, he was able to parlay that experience into a product development role at Thomson Reuters Canada, where he has worked in various capacities for the past 20 years.

Although achieving professional success, in 2018 the entrepreneurial bug came calling once again. Ken combined his knowledge of product development and his interest in AI and Machine Learning to found IRIS, a company looking to revolutionize the lengthy and costly insolvency and restructuring process.

Our conversation covers many topics including:

* Why Ken chose not to pursue private practice after law school;

* The problems Ken saw in the insolvency space that inspired him to to found IRIS; and

* The future of legal tech and some of the implications this will have on future practitioners.

For more on Ken & IRIS, you can follow him on LinkedIn, or check out IRIS’ new site:

#45 The Future of Law Firms: A conversation with Nathan Hepple, Director at HBA Legal.

mercredi 20 octobre 2021 • Durée 54:28

On the show this week, we are thrilled to have back on Nathan Hepple, Director at HBA Legal based in Sydney, Australia.

Our conversation covers a lot of ground including:

* The advantages of having non-lawyers own and help run law firms, and why regulations in Canada should change to allow for more choice in determining a firm structure.

* The difference between the business of law and the practice of law, and why distinguishing between the two when it comes to running the firm is critical;

* The existential risks posed to traditional law firms who continue to resist innovation;

* The importance of value based billing instead of the traditional billable hours approach; and

* Some fantastic advice to law students.

If you want to hear more from Nathan, be sure to check out his podcast "Pardon My Objection”, where he, alongside one of our previous guests Mitch Kowalski, challenge many of the accepted traditions in the legal profession.
