Camino Legal

Completed LegalTech Offline DevOps Hackatón

About the case

Camino Legal was born at a hackathon and is now in production. It helps rural communities with basic legal procedures: drafting a formal petition (derecho de petición) or reviewing a contract with a traffic light that flags risks. It works offline.

Context

In rural Colombia many people have no access to a lawyer or a good connection, yet still need to defend their rights in writing.

What I did

Programmed as the team's secondary developer.
Reviewed the app's legal content as a law student.
Designed the product's sales strategy.
Handled all deployment and acted as the project's DevOps.

What I learned

Turning legal language into steps anyone understands is design work, not just law.
Deploying and running a real product teaches things local code never shows.
