The Legal Innovation & Technology Lab (LIT Lab) at Suffolk University Law School is an experiential program that combines the vision of the Legal Innovation & Technology Center with the pedagogy and legal services mission of our clinical programs.
In the Lab students work as part of a research and development (R&D) consultancy focused on legal tech and data science. Active areas of research include:
- Expert systems/guided interviews
- Codification of tacit knowledge
- Artificial intelligence
Lab students use technology and data to develop solutions for legal aid organizations, courts, nonprofits, and law firms to help them improve efficiency and effectiveness.

The future is already here. It’s just not evenly distributed.
