Today seems to be a very French day for legal tech news. Here is a second story about French legal tech in the shape of Predictice, which is a French start-up working in the field of litigation analytics and case outcome prediction.
Predictice has teamed up with the Paris office of UK law firm, Taylor Wessing, to explore what the legal tech company’s software can do, which has several aspects to it, such as intelligent search of case law and the utilisation of machine learning. However, probably the key area of interest to most lawyers is its ability to predict the outcome of litigation:
‘In one click, the Predictice algorithm calculates the probabilities of resolution [of the dispute] and the [likely] amount of compensation. It also helps lawyers to find the best legal arguments to defend their case.’
Gilles Amsallem, Managing Partner of the Paris office of Taylor Wessing, said: ‘We are proud to participate in the launch of a legal tech initiative such as Predictice, whose ambition corresponds in all respects to the firm’s entrepreneurial and innovative values.’
