I wanted to build something that would make the biggest possible difference to the largest number of lawyers and law firms, and the universal pain point was always getting paid. So that’s what I decided to solve.
Legal operations often overlook accounts receivable. If attorneys and administrators can focus on the practice of law rather than the tedium that comes with running a business, it results in better legal counsel for those in need. We’re dedicated to making the tools that help attorneys work smarter and move our industry forward.
I would have to say there are three that immediately come to mind:
1) Our first venture-backed round of financing from a top-tier Silicon Valley seed stage venture firm.
2) Being honored by the American Bar Association’s Women of LegalTech committee at their February 2020 Summit in Chicago.
3) Announcing Headnote’s acquisition by Paradigm.
I think the most challenging part is either the inherent imposter syndrome most founders feel, or the decision to co-found Headnote with my husband, Thornton Schaaf, when we had an 18 month old, then having another baby 18 months later when Headnote was growing and it was full steam ahead.
