GLH Romania 2019 Winners

GLH 2019 Romania - Winners

This year's winning solution, LAWra, is designed by the Legal Shapers team to be the first legal chatbot for travelers, easily accessible through various social media platforms such as Facebook Messenger. LAWra can be used to provide verified legal answers for any person traveling abroad. In the event of an immediate emergency during the journey, LAWra offers personalized legal assistance through its local partners, carefully selected and available one click away. From a technical point of view, LAWra uses NLP and AI technologies to decipher the complicated character of human language and to understand exactly the needs and context of the user. Scenarios can be created by both technical and non-technical people, using a powerful UI interface. The Legal Shapers team consists of lawyers Tudor Colţan (SeniorAssociate Suciu Popa), Roxana Pistolea (Associate Clifford Chance), Roxana Mihaela Catea (Senior Associate Ţuca Zbârcea and Associates) and IT specialists Petru Bălăşa and Eduard Mirică.

GLH 2019 Romania - 2nd Place

The second-placed team, Summarizel, proposed a Chrome browser extension (soon other solutions), which summarizes and translates all Terms and Conditions. The solution integrates a translation function so that any user on the globe can benefit fromit. The advantages brought by the solution include internet transparency, accessible language, fast and easy access to relevant information. The solution can be a useful resource for observing the transparency imposed by GDPR andcombines legal, technical, design, UX / UI to capture the user's attention and help him understand what he accepts, in easy words. Summarizel team: Ruxandra Sava - Innovation, Technology & Privacy Lawyer, Ecaterina Donciu - Graphic Designer, Diana Marusic - TechWizard, Eugene Cernei - TechWizard.

GLH 2019 Romania - 3rd Place

The third place was obtained by Lucky Team 1 who proposed an "Uber" for legal services for simple emergency solutions. Their project answers a problem that all of us encounter at some point: the need of an urgent advice from a lawyer, an advice that can get you out oftrouble and prevent long-term hardship. Avocat NonStop (“NonStopLawyer”) creates a permanent link between a lawyer and any individual in need at the distance of a simple phone call. The problem the lawyer can quickly give a useful answer to can be diverse, from being pulled over by the police to not understanding a certain clause from a contract in front of you.Our solution comes in two forms, either through a short phone number to be remembered easily by users, or through a mobile application that connects the user with the appropriate lawyer qualified to give a suitable answer to the said problem. As for the future plans, interactive voice response software(IRV) and machine learning could be implemented to improve the efficiency of the product. LuckyTeam 1 team is made up of two lawyers, AndreaPantiru -Dentons and Mihai Dolhescu - Clifford Chance.
