Abstract

This post presents an article by Amy Schmitz and John Zeleznikow, Intelligent Legal Tech to Empower Self-Represented Litigants. It helps explain why ODR systems sometimes don’t fulfill parties’ needs. The article develops a typology of six functions that various ODR systems perform: case management, triaging, advisory, communication, decision support, and drafting. It includes a great appendix listing ODR systems and which of these functions they perform, noting that some systems perform multiple functions. It argues that artificial intelligence and data analytics have the potential to help self-represented litigants and others pursue remedies and justice.
