The Legal Tech Ecosystem: Innovation, Advancement & the Future of Law Practice
“A leading voice in the world of legal technology, Colin Levy has written a thoughtful, wide-ranging, and invaluable guide to the increasingly important field of legal tech.” –David Lat, founder, Above the LawThe legal landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace, with the seismic shifts of recent years demanding a fresh perspective on the role of technology and innovation within the legal profession. The Legal Tech Ecosystem delves into this essential transformation, shedding light on the crucial interplay between law and technology in today’s complex world.
At its core, this book addresses the profound changes unfolding in the legal domain, driven by macro-economic forces. These changes have placed an ever-increasing burden on legal departments to accomplish more with fewer resources. A quartet of pillars—the explosive growth of regulations, the challenges posed by globalization, the convergence of risk dimensions, and the pressure on corporate profits—has created an environment where legal professionals must adapt swiftly to succeed.
Author Colin S. Levy, an esteemed legal practitioner with diverse experiences spanning publishing, education, technology, and cyber security, serves as an invaluable guide through this dynamic landscape. His unique insights, honed across industries and organizational scales, offer readers a deep understanding of the intricate nexus where law, technology, and business converge.
While emerging legal technology has provided effective solutions to these challenges, The Legal Tech Ecosystem emphasizes that technology alone is not sufficient. Legal departments must undergo a fundamental digital transformation, rethinking their structures, processes, and approaches to truly capitalize on the benefits technology brings. The real value lies in data—capturing it, analyzing it, and deriving transformative insights from it.
Colin has emerged as a leading thinker in this space, sharing his perspective through podcasts, writings, and insightful commentary. His expertise illuminates the path forward for legal professionals seeking to thrive in this era of change. Agility, flexibility, and innovation will define success, and this book is the perfect companion for those seeking to embrace the future with confidence.
As the legal profession evolves, those equipped with the knowledge and insights provided by The Legal Tech Ecosystem will be at the forefront of this transformation. The changing legal environment demands proactive engagement, and this book, curated by one of the field’s luminaries, offers the guidance needed to navigate the exciting journey ahead.

The Laws of Restitution
In The Laws of Restitution, Robert Stevens shows that there is no unified law of restitution or unjust enrichment. Instead, there are seven or eight different kinds of private law claim, depending on how you count them, which have nothing important in common one with another that have been grouped together by commentators. Few of these claims have anything to do with enrichment, and what is restituted differs between them. Like all private law claims, those gathered here concern (in)justice between individuals, but they have no further unity. Many of them are not based upon an agreement or a wrong, but that negative feature has no utility. “Restitution” or “unjust enrichment’ should cease to be discussed as unified areas of law.With close attention to caselaw and legislation, the work identifies and describes the various reasons for “restitution” that any properly constructed system of private law ought to recognise. It explains how the law of restitution relates to, and is bound up with, contract, torts, equity, and property law.

Public Law
Fresh, modern, and practical, Public Law provides law undergraduates with a unique approach to constitutional and administrative law, aptly demonstrating why this is an exciting time to be studying the subject.Writing in a fluid, succinct style, the authors carve a logical pathway through the key areas studied on the LLB, guiding students to a solid understanding of the fundamental principles. This theoretical grounding is then rooted in reality, with each concept applied to a hypothetical scenario (included at the start of each chapter) to set it into a practical context.
While this practical element helps students to understand how the law applies and develop problem-solving skills, a trio of supportive learning features also encourages active engagement with and a critical appreciation of public law. ‘Key case’ boxes highlight and analyse the significant case law in each area; ‘Counterpoint’ boxes flag alternative viewpoints and areas of debate; and ‘Pause for reflection’ boxes prompt readers to consider the impact of laws, and what potential developments and reforms may lie ahead.
Public Law’s modern approach and unique combination of practical application and theoretically critical discussion makes it the ideal choice for students seeking to understand concepts not only in the abstract but in practice, helping them to develop the skills they need to succeed at university and beyond.

Common Law Handbook: For Juror’s, Sheriff’s, Bailiff’s, and Justice’s
“ONLY THE PEOPLE” CAN SAVE AMERICA WILL YOU? THEN REGISTER WITH THE “NATIONAL REGISTRY” At www.NationalLibertyAlliance.org to become a common law Jurist. We are establishing Common Law Grand Juries in all 3,141 counties in the United States of America. By doing this the people will move our Courts back to “Courts of Justice” and take 100% control of our government. Watch the video “Power of the Grand Jury.” THE DUTY OF THE “COMMON LAW GRAND JURY is to right any wrong. If anyone’s unalienable rights have been violated, or removed, without a legal sentence of their peers, the Grand Jury can restore them. In addition, if a dispute shall arise concerning this matter it shall be settled according to the judgment of the Grand Jurors, the Sureties of the peace. IN A US SUPREME COURT STUNNING 6 TO 3 DECISION JUSTICE ANTONIN SCALIA, writing for the majority, confirmed that the American grand jury is neither part of the judicial, executive nor legislative branches of government, but instead belongs to the people. It is in effect a fourth branch of government “governed” and “administered” directly by and on behalf of the American people, and its authority emanates from the “Bill of Rights” and has the power to enforce law and remove people from PUBLIC office. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: Q: Once I register what happens next? A: If you want to be an active full time or part time Grand Jurist notify one of your county coordinators and they will assist you, you can find them listed under county coordinator at www.NationalLibertyAlliance.org – Otherwise your name will go into the jury pool and you will receive a phone call occasionally to participate as a trial or grand jurist. Q: Do I have to serve when I get the call? A: No. If you cannot participate at that time, we will recycle your name, no questions asked. Q: When I am called how long will I be needed for? A: Usually 1-3 days, you will be given that information and the dates in order to decide if you can participate. Q: What do I do now? A: Go to www.NationalLibertyAlliance.org and Register. After you register you will be taken to an “Orientation Page” and you will be instructed further, please read carefully that page.Read more
