Description

Beau Atkins runs Evolve Family Law in Saskatchewan, Canada, where he’s using AI to reach the 79% of people with legal problems who never hire a lawyer. In this conversation, he shares how he built an AI-assisted tool that guides self-represented clients through court processes — and how he’s testing an AI agent to handle intake calls. His end goal? Serve with three lawyers what would normally take 300.
