Fiona McLay, founder of McLay Legal Consulting, is a friendly face in the world of legal tech. Fiona helps lawyers make their firms not just more profitable, but also more enjoyable places to work, thanks to smart use of the right tech.
With 25 years as a dispute resolution lawyer under her belt, she’s seen it all – having worked in top tier, mid-tier, NewLaw, and in-house. This journey has given her an insider’s view of how different lawyers use their tech – and how to help them do it better.
Tech alone is not a magic bullet but she believes that tech-enabled lawyers can better serve their clients, be happier and build more resilient businesses.
Fiona is a teaching fellow at the College of Law and a Geeky Guru at the Centre for Legal Innovation. Her book called “Tech Enabled Lawyer” is packed with insights on getting the most out of your current tech and figuring out what new tech you need. It has been described as “the guide the industry has been crying out for”.
