Career Advice

There is more than one way into legal tech.

For people exploring a path into legal tech.

You do not have to be both a lawyer and a technologist to build a career in legal tech, and you do not have to fit neatly into someone else’s definition of what a legal-tech career should look like.

You may come from law, technology, operations, consulting, or another field entirely. You may also be a student or early-career professional trying to understand what legal tech is, what roles exist, and where to start.

Swathi’s career began in software engineering, moved into law, and ultimately brought those two worlds together in legal technology leadership. Today, she is both a California-licensed attorney and the Chief Technology Officer of a growing law firm.

She has been through that journey herself. That experience informs how she helps others understand where their background fits, what knowledge they may need to build, and which route into legal tech makes the most sense.
