Why the best legal tech demo is rarely the best decision

By Legal Futures Associate Codified Strategy [1]

The best legal tech demo in the room is rarely the best decision for your firm. They just happen to look the same on the day.

Closing that gap is why Codified Strategy is proud to be an Official Support Partner at LegalTechTalk 2026.

On 17-18 June, over 5,000 legal professionals will gather at the InterContinental London – The O2 to explore the latest developments in legal technology, AI and legal operations.

Why this matters

A platform can look transformational in a 30-minute demo. Demos are built to remove friction and your firm is probably full of it. But the real questions come afterwards:

Codified Strategy embeds qualified lawyers inside law firms, chambers and in-house teams to help them make better technology decisions. Our advisers are qualified lawyers who have worked in the environments they now advise. We’ve lived the realities of billing targets, client money rules, conflict checks, regulatory requirements and operational pressures. We assess technology through the lens that matters most: how it performs in practice.

What you’ll get

The outcome is straightforward. You don’t walk away with more software for the sake of it. Instead, we leave you with confidence that the technology you invest in will support your people, your clients, your business and reduce complexity. Codified Strategy was founded by Matthew Letts, a Legal 500-recognised restructuring and insolvency solicitor. We are also delighted to announce that Lorraine Chimbga will be joining Codified Strategy as a Technology Strategy Consultant from 15 June 2026, and will also be attending, and speaking at, LegalTechTalk.

Still skeptical? Here’s what Codified Strategy’s first client says about working with Matthew:

“A qualified solicitor who has sat in the fee-earner chair, with the specialist IT knowledge to match. Matthew gave us real confidence in every choice we made.” -Nick Oliver, Managing Director, Isadore Goldman

If you’re attending LegalTechTalk and weighing up new technology, the Codified Strategy team would love to talk with you.
