An initiative of the J. Mack Robinson College of Business supported by Georgia State’s College of Law, the Legal Analytics Lab works toward a legal system that embraces data to solve intractable problems and create a more just society. The lab brings business, legal, criminal justice, and other scholars together with data scientists to analyze millions of court records, corporate financial disclosures, contracts, patent applications, and other legal documents to identify patterns, evaluate how the law operates, and experiment with predicting future outcomes.
Lab faculty, students, and partners use the tools of data science, including natural language processing, machine and deep learning, network analysis, and other methodologies, to produce original research. They also work with strategic partners, including nonprofits, companies, and law firms, to help these organizations uncover patterns and predictors within large volumes of data.
