In the next 10 years, 90% of legal services will be delivered online. This rapid shift in the industry can leave students feeling uncertain about their role in modernizing firms and professors eager to assuage these concerns through curriculum updates to focus more on tech and innovation. ‍

With free student accounts, live guest lecture support, sample assignments, and more, Gavel is here to help whether you are a student, professor, clinic director, or otherwise involved in academia or pro bono clinic work in the legal industry.

Some helpful resources for students and professors include:

• Document Automation for Law Schools
• What is Document Automation?
• Law School Document Automation: Assignment 1
• Intro to Legal Products & Pricing
• How to Build a Legal Intake App
• Automating a Power of Attorney

Students and professors are also invited to enroll in the free Intro to Gavel (A2J Ed.) course, which gives an overview of how to use the platform and take advantage of Gavel's powerful yet easy-to-use Word Add-In and PDF tagger!
