I’ve been a litigator for over 20 years. I led my first jury trial as a 3rd year associate to a unanimous verdict. I know what it’s like to be in a deposition with 300,000 pages of discovery, tracking every word a witness says, trying to spot the opening that wins the case—all while opposing counsel objects and the clock runs.
And I know what it feels like to review a transcript later and wish you’d caught a contradiction or asked the follow-up question. In witness examinations, there are no do-overs. That moment doesn’t come back.
I’ve talked to enough trial lawyers to know I’m not alone. We all feel the weight of those high-stakes minutes where cases get decided. But for decades, legal tech has focused on everything but those fast-moving, case-determinative moments.
So I built FullProof.
Not as a cool AI gimmick. Not as a productivity tool. I built it for my community. Litigators whose performance in the room can impact millions—in dollars, in lives, in seconds.
I joined forces with John Robison, an early engineering leader at Yahoo and Netflix who knew how to build real-time, compliance-heavy systems that perform under pressure. Together, we lead a team that understands both the stakes of litigation and the discipline required to build technology lawyers can actually trust and use in live testimony environments.
When you’re in that room, we’ll be with you.
