I had to learn to code in C# to use the game engine Unity. My brother (who is also my business partner) is a software developer so I picked up a lot of what I know from him. Since then it has been impossible to do my legal job without thinking how my coding skills could be applied to the legal profession!<\/p>\n<h2>How does coding help you as a lawyer?<\/h2>\n<p>Mostly by increasing the efficiency of administrative tasks, by creating applications that can auto generate certain documents, act as task managers or automate administrative tasks. It allows &#8220;non-legal&#8221; work to be completed much more efficiently, which allows the savings to be passed onto clients and creates more time for pure legal work. This is essentially why I started working on my case management system project Eallium.<\/p>\n<h2>How many years have you been able to code?<\/h2>\n<p>Around 4 years.<\/p>\n<h2>What languages can you code in?<\/h2>\n<p>C#, HTML, Game Maker Language (GML) and a small amount of Python.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.legalgeek.co\/read\/lawyers-who-code-the-coder-turned-barrister\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Richard Burnham is a solicitor at Ronald Fletcher Baker and has recently launched LegalTech project Eallium CMS.
