This week on the Legally Speaking Podcast, our host Robert Hanna speaks to Maya Markovich.

Maya is the Chief Growth Officer for NextLaw Labs, which is striving to reinvent law with technology.

Part of the Dentons ecosystem, NextLaw invests and partners with legal tech startups to encourage the adoption and development of new workflow solutions in the industry.

It acts as a primary resource for Dentons to explore new legal tech ideas and revenue streams, helping the world's largest law firm stay ahead of its competitors.

Maya previously worked as product marketing manager and as an attorney, having developed her early career in Silicon Valley (after attending Stanford University). She was named one of the five most influential women in legal tech by the ILTA in 2020.

In this episode, topics include:

• Her upbringing and career in Palo Alto, in the heart of Silicon Valley
• How NextLaw is supporting legal technology's adoption and evolution for Dentons and the wider industry
• How the legal tech space has boomed over the last 5 years, and some key contemporary trends in the space
• Why the adoption of legal tech is helping widen access to justice and legal services
• Why you don't need coding (or to be male!) if you want to get involved in the area
• Why legal tech firms, in particular, need to pay close attention to ethics in their code
