New Judicial Analytics Platform Focuses on Los Angeles But Plans to Expand Nationally

Two years ago, I wrote a post titled, In Litigation and Legal Research, Judge Analytics is the New Black, in which I discussed three products — Lex Machina, Ravel Law and ALM Judicial Perspectives — that were extracting data from court dockets and applying analytics to reveal insights about judges, such as how they might rule on a specific type of motion or how long they might take to issue a decision. Since then, both Bloomberg Law and Docket Navigator have also launched judicial analytics products.
Now there is another. Launching today is Gavelytics, a Santa Monica, Calif., company whose product provides analytics on judges in Los Angeles and Riverside counties, and that plans within a year to cover most of California and eventually expand nationally.
The company was founded two years ago by Rick Merrill, a former biglaw litigator who became frustrated over his inability to get meaningful information about the judges before whom he was appearing.
