Overview
The Utah Supreme Court seeks to pilot a "regulatory sandbox" for legal services. This sandbox is an innovative policy tool that would allow new players in the legal market to test cutting-edge products and services in a safe and controlled environment, with the ultimate goal of leveraging new technologies and business models to increase access to justice. The court is also creating a new regulatory entity — the Office of Legal Services Innovation ("Innovation Office") — to oversee the sandbox and ensure the project’s success. With this project funding, the court believes its new regulatory strategy will make significant progress toward closing the access-to-justice gap in Utah and serve as a model of reform for other states.
