UPDATE: London Legal Walk 2020
Thank you for helping us raise money for London’s Free Legal Advice Charities & Law Centres
On Monday 5th October 2020, the Casedo team took part in the annual 10km London Legal Walk to raise funds for London’s free legal advice services. Thank you to everyone who participated in the walk and to those who donated to us or shared news of our efforts! With your support, we hit our target in raising £250.
Ross, Jim, Peter, Milad and Gizem took part in the 10km challenge in different, COVID safe and socially distanced ways. Jim and Peter cycled in Bromley & Norfolk respectively, Milad got on the treadmill at his local gym and Gizem jogged by the sunny shores in Antakya, Turkey.
Taking part in the challenge was especially important this year. Since March, the need for free legal advice services has increased significantly and the pandemic continues to hit the most vulnerable and disadvantaged the hardest. Although the challenge could not go ahead in its traditional way, we are still delighted that we could all come together with innovative ideas to contribute.
If you couldn’t take part this year, but would still like to help support London’s valued legal advice charities, it’s not too late to make a donation on our Virgin Money Giving page.
London Legal Walk 2020
Casedo has entered a team to participate in its first walk for justice. We aim to raise £200.00 for London's free legal advice charities and law centres. Join us on October 5th 2020 as we walk 10,000 steps for justice.
UPDATE 1st October - Due to the ongoing Pandemic the London Legal Walk 2020 has morphed in the London Legal Walk 10xChallenge in which participants are being encouraged to take part in the Challenge "by walking, running, cycling, hopping, skipping or roller skating 10km local to where you are on the 5th October." I've updated the images on this page accordingly.
We'll post some pictures when we are done to prove that we weren't just at home behind our desks! I'm going to be hopping on my bike for a nice country ride... you'll have to wait and see what the others are up to!

The Legal Tech Landscape
On the 16th November CASEDO was invited by the City Law Society to attend the ‘Legal Tech Landscape’ event at City, University of London.
Ross Birkbeck & Milad Shojaei joined an impressive panel of technology enthusiasts, including the associate dean, professor Susan Blake and Lawyers from Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner LLP and Norton Rose Fulbright as well as a representative from Office & Dragons Ltd. This was a fantastic opportunity to explore the restrictions faced by the legal sector and to discuss the technological solutions that are available and growing.
We are especially grateful to the president of the City Law Society for hosting such an exciting event at the Oliver Thompson Lecture theatre and to the many students and staff who attended.
