Precursor Ventures, an early-stage venture capital firm, spotlights Courtroom5 co-founders Dr. Sonja Ebron and Dr. Debra Slone in its Founder Spotlight series. The post highlights how Courtroom5 is transforming access to justice by building an AI-powered legal toolbox for the 30 million Americans who end up in civil court each year without a lawyer, with more than 73% of users who complete their cases on the platform winning or settling.
Sonja and Debra founded Courtroom5 after both experienced the frustration of navigating civil court without representation. Watching others struggle in the same courtrooms, they realized their combined expertise in AI, research, and information systems could help level the playing field. “You shouldn’t need a PhD to represent yourself in court,” Sonja says.
We’re honored to back this incredible team!
