Hello there Legal Geeks – Ben Chiriboga here!
In writing my Legal Tech Growth Weekly newsletter, I find lots of amazing best links, tips, articles and jobs from around the world of Legal Tech (and a few from outside).
My goal has always been to share those resources with as many people as possible. So when Legal Geek approached me to do something together, of course I said yes.
Tune in every month, where I’ll be curating the best of the best from my meanderings in the Legal Tech world. Thanks again to the Legal Geek team for the great opportunity. Let’s get started!
