Haley Altman has had a notable legal and legaltech career. She’s steadily moved forward from legal associate, to partner, to legaltech co-founder and CEO, and now sits as the Global Head of Corporate Development for the company that acquired her legal technology startup.
In this episode, Haley shares her outstanding journey from legal practice into technology and entrepreneurship. Her experience should be shared with as many startup founders as possible.
Two takeaways that stood out in the conversation. Haley described what her startup offered, with precision. Make sure to listen to that aspect of her interview and refine the description of your startup.
The second great takeaway was how her previous company found a sweet spot on the pain point lawyers were having in managing transactions. Lawyers knew it was a problem that required a solution. The added benefit, was many investors had been on the other side of closing transactions and therefore understood the problem her company was solving. As such, it put Doxly in a good place for selling the software as well as finding funding.
Lastly, we touched on the recent acquisition of Kira Systems by Litera. There appears to be a focus on Litera becoming the one-stop shopping experience for legal transactions via Litera Transact.
