In his role at LegalZoom, Chase Hertel is paving the way for the future of legal services, the latest step in a career dedicated to access to justice. He began at Lawfty, a D.C. personal injury firm designed to make it as easy as possible for those injured to be compensated, including through innovative use of the D.C. Bar’s rules governing legal practice. At the ABA Center for Innovation, Chase further explored how bar regulations can be reformed to better serve the country’s legal needs, especially in delivering legal services more broadly and liberally to reach more people. Chase’s latest role with LegalZoom is a perfect next step – he is able to benefit those in need of legal services by connecting them with lawyers easily and affordably, and he can serve lawyers by opening up new avenues of business.
