The Future of Law Today

LawWithoutWalls teams legal and business students from around the world with practicing legal and business professionals, entrepreneurs, and academics on a journey of innovation and collaboration.

Teams collaborate to solve a real business-of-law challenge during the LWOW Sprint—a legal hackathon mirroring real life Agile Sprints—and in the process, participants learn and hone problem-solving and innovation skills as well as teaming and collaborations skills, recharge the law market with innovations across business, law and technology, and revitalize relationships with colleagues, clients, and future talent across the globe.

Given the needs of the new global, complex multi-disciplinary legal marketplace, successful lawyers of tomorrow must be creative problem solvers, leaders with a high risk tolerance and business mind set that can use technology, teaming and communication skills to overcome the walls of law.

Solutions to the challenges of tomorrow call for even more collaboration and permeability between legal practice and education (current and continuing), an interdependent relationship with reciprocal obligations, and more interaction among people of different disciplines and different cultures.

In other words, the future of law requires a mentality of a world of law—without walls.
