This post is a part of a series based on my Law for Startups workshop at MaGIC in September 2015.
Read the earlier post for context: Law for Startups in Malaysia — building on the best foundations.
It’s a basic introduction to legalities for startups.
I explained the background to this conversation about “DIY legal documents” and the Collective of Applied Law and Legal Realism (CALR) in an earlier post — “DIY legal documents for conveyancing transactions — can we really do it without lawyers?”
As mentioned in that post, I was invited to speak at the launch event and was assigned the session title — What’s wrong with conveyancing and corporate law work?
I’ll be writing about what I shared in relation to conveyancing in four parts (beginning with this post):
Earlier this year, I was invited to be one of the speakers at the launch of the Collective of Applied Law and Legal Realism (CALR) — the event title was “The End of Lawyers, The Future of Law”.
The launch was a great success, and the report was the front page headline of The Star the following day.
CALR is an initiative led by my friend Edmund Bon, and is one of the many initiatives which have been discussed (formally and informally) by myself and Edmund with different groups of people in relation to innovation in the legal industry.
