BIG thank you to Scott Kelly, President & Co-Founder of Community Lawyer, P.B.C., for chatting with me last week about his startup story and the good work Community Lawyer is doing!
Scott and his co-founders launched Community Lawyer in 2016. Season 1 of the company included building a platform that allows local networks of lawyers to create consumer facing websites that consumers could go to and connect with a lawyer. Over 50 networks use the product today. Season 2 of the company included building a no code app builder that lawyers use to automate their expertise.
Together, we talked about several topics including:
- The path that led Scott to Blue Ridge Labs and his incubator experience there, including founder dating,
- What Community Lawyer does and examples of the awesome apps you can build with it,
- His love for reading and writing fantasy novels,
- How we both agree that the people who are able to wake up early and work out are aliens,
- His advice for recent law grads, and
- How Community Lawyer is hiring!
Update as of January 16, 2021: Community.lawyer is now AfterPattern.
