The integration of emerging technologies and recent developments in artificial intelligence can dramatically transform the justice system – from enhancing legal professionals’ work and supporting judicial decision-making to streamlining court processes and making legal services more accessible and affordable for citizens. However, alongside these benefits, significant concerns are also emerging.
What is the optimal approach for implementing innovation in Israel’s legal services? This was the focus of our professional workshop “Israeli Legal-Tech Innovation,” which we led in collaboration with professional stakeholders from the Ministry of Justice, the National Digital Agency, and Deloitte Consulting.
RISE Institute’s Head of Policy and Regulation, Adv. Gaya Harari Heit, opened with an analysis of Israel’s potential in this field, addressing barriers and policy recommendations. The workshop featured fascinating overviews by Elad Rosenthal, Deputy Director General for Policy Planning and Strategy at the Ministry of Justice, Guy Itingon, Chief Digital Officer (CDO) at the Ministry of Justice, and Hila Halili, Head of Customer Strategy at Deloitte Digital. The workshop culminated in focused discussions among dozens of Israel’s most relevant stakeholders, addressing challenges and potential solutions.
This marks just the beginning of our significant work in advancing Legal-Tech in Israel. We will continue to collaborate with government ministries to create an innovative future for the legal world.
