What is Lawtech Mentoring?

A series of one-on-one mentoring sessions with a carefully matched lawtech expert, designed to help lawtech founders at every stage of the journey. 

  • Connect with your mentor – from leading lawyers to successful startup founders and industry leaders
  • Focus on what matters – get tailored advice on your business goals, challenges, and growth strategy
  • Gain expert insight – receive practical, unbiased guidance to shape your next move with confidence

“In any new company, strategies must be challenged and problems dealt with by best experience; an approach that we have always welcomed. The Mentoring programme delivered on that well and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the initiative to others.”

Steve Stewart, Director of Operations at transparently

What will I learn?

Through four, focused one-on-one sessions, the Lawtech Mentoring programme will equip you with the clarity, confidence, and expert guidance needed to move your lawtech venture forward.

We know every startup is different — so if you feel you need fewer or additional sessions, just let the LawtechUK Education Team know. We're here to make the experience work for you.

Benefits of participation include:

Strategic guidance: receive insights tailored to your startup's unique challenges and objectives.
Enhanced decision-making: gain confidence in your strategic choices with advice from experienced mentors.
Market understanding: deepen your knowledge of the legal tech market, identifying opportunities and navigating challenges.
