After decades of delay, the U.S. legal profession is finally embracing digital technology in the delivery of civil justice. Much more rapidly, design methods are being embraced by legal institutions as a means reforming everything from commercial legal product lines to civil court forms. What explains the rapid embrace of legal design when digital legal technology took decades to break through? We think that a deliberately human-centered approach to law helps explain the sudden advantageousness of legal design. But what must be done about the bias and inequity that is embedded within the legal systems we seek to redesign, and within the legal design movement itself? We propose that a radical iterative and collaborative effort that is deliberately structured to address systemic bias has the strongest potential to deliver on the promise of both design and justice.

快速拥抱法律设计和使用协同设计来避免系统性偏见

经过数十年的拖延，美国法律界终于在民事司法中采用了数字技术。更快地，设计方法正被法律机构接受，作为改革从商业法律产品线到民事法庭形式的一切的手段。当数字法律技术需要几十年的时间才能突破时，如何解释法律设计的迅速接受？我们认为，刻意以人为本的法律方法有助于解释法律设计的突然优势。但是必须对我们寻求重新设计的法律体系中的偏见和不公平做些什么，以及法律设计运动本身？我们建议，为解决系统性偏见而有意构建的激进的迭代和协作努力最有可能实现设计和正义的承诺。
