The legal profession’s next chapter

In this special episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, produced in partnership with NROL, host Jerome Doraisamy sits down with NROL founder Jesse Shah to explore the future of the legal profession and the launch of LawUno, a new platform designed to better connect, support, and empower lawyers.

Reflecting on the 2025 Women in Law Awards, hosted in November, Shah shares why his continued involvement in the awards remains deeply personal and professionally important, and how supporting women in law is inseparable from building a stronger, more inclusive profession.

The conversation then turns to the real challenges lawyers are facing as the profession moves into 2026, from fragmented networks and limited access to information to the lack of meaningful community, training, and career visibility. Shah outlines why these issues have reached a critical point and how LawUno has been created to directly address them.

Shah also discusses the importance of better connection "more than ever", the evolving ways lawyers present themselves professionally, reflections on the upcoming 30 Under 30 Awards, and his perspective on embracing change in an industry that is often sceptical or risk-averse.

LawUno represents a new way forward for the legal profession, one platform, one network, built by lawyers, for lawyers.
