As justice systems around the world face budget pressures, backlogs, and access issues, Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) has evolved from a “nice-to-have” to a vital part of public infrastructure. This episode explores the rise of ODR as a post-COVID necessity, how perception has shifted globally, and why courts, insurers, and policy makers are now embracing it. It’s a story of structural change and how modern tools can rebuild trust and efficiency in institutional systems.
Aditya brings a lived experience as the founder of one of the world’s top three ODR platforms, grown with no marketing budget, purely through strategic collaboration with judiciary and policy stakeholders. He shares the hard lessons from working across India, the UK, and the US illustrating how RDO has helped frame legal tech not as a risk, but as an essential upgrade to outdated systems.
Legal tech is often misunderstood especially when it comes to AI. Many fear job displacement, but the real story is how these tools can free up time, increase access, and improve the fairness of legal systems. This topic confronts the myths around AI in law, and how tech should be seen as a partner to practitioners, not a replacement.
Aditya takes a refreshingly grounded approach. A lawyer by training and an operator by practice, he explains how RDO’s systems help augment, not replace, human judgment. With real examples from deploying tech in courts and institutions, he discusses how automation can work alongside people to create faster, more transparent outcomes in justice.
In a world full of leadership clichés, this episode dives into a unique framework: how running a startup in legal tech mirrors managing a football team. From player roles to tactical execution, Aditya draws parallels between coaching and company-building exploring how resilience, flexibility, and strategic depth translate from pitch to boardroom.
With infectious energy, Aditya reveals how football has shaped his leadership style using strategy to stay one step ahead in a slow-moving sector. Whether it’s comparing legal ops to midfield pivots or discussing culture-building like a team manager, his sports-inspired framework is engaging, relatable, and refreshingly human in the legal-tech space.
