Agreements Network Marries Legal Contracts with Blockchain (via Ledger Insights)
“Monax announced that eleven organizations are partnering with the Agreements Network (AN) which turns ‘legal processes into products’. The network enables people to create legally compliant agreements from templates with a few clicks.
The project deserves attention because of the involvement of Monax which is known for contributing the code to Hyperledger Burrow.
The AN announced it’s working with law firms BakerHostetler, LegalBono and ErdosIP. Additionally, tech firm partners include Clause, Crowdcube, LexPredict, Libra, Mattereum, Monax, Rymedi, TransparentNode and Wolfram Blockchain Labs.”

The Trust Machine: The Technology Behind Bitcoin Could Transform How the Economy Works (via The Economist)
We offer some initial conversation of the application of Blockchain to legal services in our deck called Fin(Legal)Tech.

The goal is to reduce needless friction – which is endemic to most processes ( and legal centered processes are particularly bad).
