Legal tech is booming, and interesting new companies appear very regularly. This Legal Tech List is my attempt at keeping track of recent developments. In order to keep the amount of information under control, I have limited the description of the companies to the payoffs that they themselves use. Other resources are mentioned at the bottom. This list is regularly updated, feel free to suggest updates or corrections!
