Event details
Melbourne Law Students in the Law Apps class showcased their app designs developed during semester one, on 26 May 2021.
Gary Cazalet taught the ninth Law Apps class at Melbourne Law School. Over the semester the class learnt about legal technology, disruption in the legal profession, innovation, creativity and human centred design.
Groups of students identified legal needs that are not served adequately by existing legal processes. Using Josef and Neota Logic software, the teams built web based applications and chat bots to empower their users. Applications and chat bots were built from the ground up using human centred design.
Students enthusiastically responded to the challenge of designing, testing and building applications across a semester which was entirely online.
Our student teams competed for the honour of being judged the Herbert Smith Freehills Best Law App.
The judges were David Sinn, Herbert Smith Freehills, Luke Thomas, Portable, Dominique Simsion, Neota Logic, and Henry Ho, Josef Legal.
