Amanda Brown
Amanda Brown is the Founder and Executive Director of Lagniappe Law Lab, a nonprofit organization that seeks to “narrow the Access to Justice Gap by ensuring the Louisiana civil justice system is operating at its full potential.” The lab streamlines the creation of new legal tech and access to justice initiatives through consulting on new projects, as well as providing maintenance and governance support to existing access to justice projects. Beyond her organization, Amanda serves as co-chair of the Louisiana Access to Justice Commission’s technology subcommittee, and also holds roles at the Legal Service Corporation and the American Bar Association. Amanda’s legal tech roots run deep – she formerly consulted for the Louisiana Bar Foundation on the state’s Civil Legal Navigator, which guides users through a question-and-answer process to get critical legal information on issues like landlord-tenant law and LGBT+ rights.
