AltaClaro was featured in a Legaltech News article, "AltaClaro Launches New Training Programs to Tackle Mounting Pressure on Associates" by Isha Marathe.
CEO and Founder Abdi Shayesteh and Executive Legal Editor Patricia Libby were quoted on the launch of our "New Litigator Fast Track" Series as well as our new legal writing course, "Successful Writing for Legal Practice."
The demand for associates to hit the ground running on billable work has intensified over the years—moving away from “the luxury of a first-year associate [learning] about a case through a whole year of discovery like we used to do,” Libby said. As a result, law firms are willing to spend less and less time on training new lawyers.
AltaClaro’s new offerings, which are online modules that operate like real-life, learn-as-you-go legal puzzles, are intended to speed up the process of first-, second-, and third-year associates’ litigation training, she said.
“Doctors get to practice on cadavers, pilots get to practice on flight [simulations]—well now lawyers are getting the chance to practice on fake clients,” Shayesteh said. “That’s really the ethos of AltaClaro.”
