It's important to have a legal technology roadmap - it will outline how your in house legal department software will support the business strategy and help drive business priorities over the next three to five years.

Without a plan, you're likely to end up with the wrong technology or worse, legal software that doesn't work together.

It’s time to commit to a smarter approach to LegalTech

Although it is not an arduous exercise, building a legal technology roadmap is too often skipped by Legal Departments (which, perhaps, is why so many say their technology fails them).

According to our Legal Operations Health Check, about 14% of in-house Legal Departments have roadmaps and use them at least “moderately well.” Nearly one-third (32 percent) say they recognize the value of a legal matter management technology strategy.

This white paper will provide a framework to get you started.

You know you need a legal technology roadmap when:

  • Team members return from conferences asking for the latest [fill-in-the-blank] app or software
  • Your Legal Department has no technology budget… or relationship with IT
  • Every member of your team has a different “system” for organizing and completing tasks
  • Your current legal matter management software is unreliable, unsupported or won’t sync together with other legal tools

What should a legal technology roadmap include?

These may vary in complexity and scope, but legal technology roadmaps should contain:

  • A strategy statement with the list of strategic priorities for the business (not technology-specific)
  • A prioritized list of improvement opportunities
  • A timeline of the initiatives and projects that will occur over the next several years
  • High-level justifications for each project
  • Estimated costs and durations for each project
  • An 'owner' for each project
