Legalweek 2027

New York, NY
North Javits Center

A broad legal-technology conference rather than a PI-specific event. Its relevance depends on the systems and operational decisions your firm is actively evaluating.

Who it is for
Legal technology buyers, operations leaders, and law-firm decision-makers
Before you go
Shortlist vendors around a defined requirement. Ask about implementation services, security, permissions, integrations, data export, and total recurring cost before comparing demonstrations.

Choose the conference around the decision.

Start with what your firm needs to accomplish. Trial-skills education, mass tort relationships, and a case-management software evaluation call for different agendas. Compare the sessions and audience before committing travel time and registration spend.

For litigation education

Check the current program, faculty, practice-area fit, and state-specific CLE approvals. A conference advertising CLE does not establish that every session qualifies for your license.

For technology decisions

Use the PI software decision center to compare five platforms and print a tailored demo checklist. Bring the same workflow and requirements to each vendor meeting. Ask who owns migration, configuration, training, and ongoing support. A polished demonstration is the start of due diligence. Use our omnichannel intake guide to map the handoffs your software needs to support.

For professional relationships

Identify the people and disciplines relevant to your firm before you travel. Set meetings with a clear purpose and agree on the next action after each conversation. Capture the proposed changes in a growth plan with assigned owners.

For marketing and leadership events, start with your PI marketing priorities and cost per signed case. If execution is the constraint, review the responsibilities of a law-firm fractional CMO before adding more tactics.

Questions about the directory

Which events are most relevant to personal injury firms?

Trial-practice and mass-tort conferences have a more direct practice-area connection. Legal-technology events may be useful for PI firms evaluating systems, but are not necessarily PI-specific. Each listing explains its audience so you can assess the fit.

What does “Our team attending” mean?

We currently plan to have team members at that event. It does not mean we organize, sponsor, exhibit at, or speak at the conference. Use the contact link to discuss connecting with our team.

Are registration prices and CLE credits included?

Follow the official event link for current ticket options, eligibility, deadlines, and CLE information. Prices can vary by membership, role, and registration date; CLE eligibility can vary by jurisdiction.

How do I suggest an event or report a correction?

Contact Gadient Consulting with the organizer's official page and the detail to review. Listings are selected for relevance to law-firm owners and teams.
