From practicing lawyer to a legal tech founder

Welcome back to the Lawformer blog! I'm Nako, Co-founder and CEO of Lawformer. Today, I'll share insights into my journey from a career in a law firm to becoming a legal tech founder.


Creating Lawformer has been an incredible journey, fueled by a passion for innovation and a drive to simplify contract drafting for legal professionals. As a practicing lawyer, I faced the firsthand challenge of sourcing relevant contract templates and clauses, spending hours navigating disorganized systems and drafting contracts from scratch. This inefficiency prompted me to streamline the process and make it smarter and more accessible.


One of Lawformer's key motivations was bridging the gap between traditional legal practices and cutting-edge technology. We envisioned Lawformer not only as a digital library of contract clauses but also as a dynamic platform leveraging technology to empower legal professionals to work more efficiently. Since day one, our focus has been on innovation, teamwork, and boldness, values that continue to drive us forward.


In the early days, Lawformer encountered challenges, from refining our product to acquiring customers in a competitive market. However, our commitment to adaptability, demonstrated by our no-code approach, set us apart. Additionally, our emphasis on providing clean, template-based clauses and ensuring an exceptional user experience resonated with our customers, earning their trust and loyalty.


The most rewarding aspect of this journey has been witnessing the growth and success of our team. Building a startup from scratch is no easy feat, but with a dedicated team, anything is possible. Together, we celebrated milestones, overcame challenges, and pushed the boundaries of legal tech.


Looking ahead, I'm excited to see Lawformer's future. My vision is clear: to become the go-to legal tech tool for Gen Z lawyers, revolutionizing contract drafting and management. With our unwavering commitment to innovation, I have no doubt we'll achieve this goal and continue making a meaningful impact in the legal industry.


Thank you for joining me on this journey. Stay tuned for more updates and insights from the Lawformer team as we continue to redefine the future of legal tech. Together, we'll shape the future of contract drafting, one clause at a time.
