Margaret Hagan

Margaret Hagan has pioneered the use of design thinking as a way to make the law more accessible and understandable. As a law student at Stanford, she created a game app called “Law Dojo” to help students study more effectively. After graduating, she served jointly as a fellow at Stanford Law’s Center on the Legal Profession and a lecturer at Stanford Institute of Design (the d.school), where she spearheaded the innovative Program for Legal Tech & Design. In keeping one foot in the world of law, and one foot in the world of design, Margaret and the Program explore how the aesthetic and functional principles of design could improve the delivery of legal services.
