Focus #Legaltech B.01 — Erol Öz / Lexpera

In August 2022, in the first episode of the Focus #Legaltech program — produced in collaboration with Chambers.Legal and Startup Hukuku — our Managing Partner Erdem Mümtaz Hacıpaşaoğlu, as host, welcomed Erol Öz, General Manager of On İki Levha Yayıncılık and Lexpera.

The central thesis of the episode was clear: legal publishing in Turkey is being redefined not only by the quality of its content but also by its digitalization strategy, search infrastructure, and AI-assisted access layers — and Lexpera is one of the reference cases of this transformation.

The journey of On İki Levha and Lexpera

The transition from traditional academic publishing to Lexpera’s legal-information platform, the digitalization of content, citation indexing, and the design of case-law and legislation access formed the spine of the episode.

Turkey’s legaltech ecosystem

The conditions for legal publishing to become a legaltech product were examined through the lenses of user experience, pricing, and B2B distribution; the growth pathways open to the sector were also discussed.

Highlights from this episode

  • Lexpera’s transformation: From publishing to platform engineering
  • Distribution: Citations, search, case-law access
  • Sector: Growth paths for Turkey’s legaltech ecosystem
