Rule of Law
The Intersection of Law, Tech, Entrepreneurship, and Storytelling.
Rule of Law is a podcast by lawyers, for lawyers. In each episode, we sit down with an attorney or legal professional to talk about relevant current events, practical technology for lawyers, career-defining stories, and the business of running a law practice.
Our guests range from large firm litigators to boutique practitioners to legal tech CEOs - all sharing stories and wisdom for listeners in the legal profession. Our goal in every podcast is to provide listeners with an engaging, unscripted experience that is insightful, educational, and yes, even fun.

Beyond Innovation Theatre: Real AI ROI in Modern Law Firms
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In today’s episode, we sit down with David Wakeling, Partner and Global Head of Markets Innovation Group at A&O Shearman, for an inside look at how one of the world’s most forward-thinking law firms is shaping the future of legal practice.
We explore how A&O Shearman evaluates and implements AI, what distinguishes real legal-tech ROI from “innovation theater,” and why many firms struggle to turn experimentation into meaningful operational change. David also shares practical insights on how to build a culture of innovation and his thoughts on the true capabilities of today’s AI systems.
