Casey Flaherty, Baretz+Brunelle partner and LexFusion co-founder, makes his second appearance on Technically Legal. This time around, he explores a provocative thesis: organizations often lean on technology as a way to sidestep deeper, more difficult issues related to process and culture.
With a career spanning nearly every corner of legal operations, Casey brings unique perspective. He began as a commercial litigator, moved in-house at Kia Motors, founded the legal operations consultancy Procertas, and developed a tech training and benchmarking platform. Since his last podcast appearance, he’s added more heavyweight roles to his resume—including Director of Legal Project Management at Baker McKenzie—before stepping into his role at LexFusion, before its acquisition by Baretz+Brunelle.
In this episode, Casey reflects on his legal industry journey, his writing process, and makes a compelling case for why legal teams must address foundational issues before introducing new tools. His core message: don’t deploy technology until you’ve mapped your processes and ensured your culture is ready to embrace change.
