The ASLE is a collaborative hub for legal professionals, technologists, and community advocates building faster, smarter legal solutions. We’re working towards a future of legal service delivery that is more equitable, efficient, and accessible to all.
Reimagining Legal Services and Closing the Justice Gap
Who We Serve
For Professionals
Collaborate on smarter tools, more efficient workflows, and modern service delivery models. Whether you’re in private practice, legal ops, IT, or still in school, ASLE helps you improve outcomes, grow your skills, and shape the future of justice.
For Access to Justice
We work with legal aid providers, community orgs, and technologists to design tools that scale impact. Our mission is to make legal support more equitable and responsive to real-world needs.
For the Community
You don’t have to be a lawyer to shape justice. ASLE welcomes students, advocates, technologists, researchers, and funders to co-create legal systems that work better.
