The Legal Technology Laboratory (LTL)

The LTL is a direct outgrowth of two Law Schools, Technology and Access to Justice conferences organized by the Law School with Kauffman Foundation support, and of the Law School’s interdisciplinary and inter-institutional Law, Technology & Public Policy course. Through the design and implementation of technology-assisted solutions and data-driven policy development, the LTL aims to advance the field of law and legal processes in the context of emerging technologies.

The LTL website (www.thelegaltechlab.com) features the following sections:

  • Projects from the LTL Community addressing legal and policy needs of communities throughout the LTL Projects are initiatives led by the LTL Community, emphasizing the cutting-edge application of technology in the legal field.  
  • A database featuring over 1,100 offerings, including courses, clinics, internships, labs, and more that seamlessly blend law and technology. 
  • Latest LTL news, progress on LTL Projects, and other updates in the legal technology field.
  • An active listserv and a growing community of more than 150 educators and innovators.

Who we are

The CLEI is a vehicle for multidisciplinary collaborators to form and deploy teams that promote the use of entrepreneurship and innovation in providing high-quality education, addressing societal needs with a diversity of knowledge bases and perspectives, and producing thoughtful and effective solutions to generate public good. UMKC’s CLEI is led by the Law School because laws are involved in virtually all challenging endeavors and the Law School emphasizes training context-aware, creative, brave, and generous lawyers to join in teams that are instruments of positive change in communities, businesses, policy, research, and the arts. We exemplify that belief by partnering with leaders from all fields in common missions to make all of the communities we serve more prosperous.
