How a lawyer-turned-technologist built a company helping legal professionals embrace AI — without losing the human touch.
A Frustrated Lawyer. A Scrappy Idea. A Big Problem to Solve.
Before Adnah Law became a trusted name in legal AI, it started with something much more personal: Raghav R. Handa, a lawyer himself, was knee-deep in the chaos of legal work — repetitive documentation, constant follow-ups, manual updates, and missed opportunities to actually practice law. And he wasn’t alone.
“The system is smart. But the workflows? Completely broken.”
That simple insight led to a powerful question:
What if we could automate the legal work lawyers don’t want to do — and do it without code, without friction, and without needing a full IT team?
The Rise of Legal Automation (and Why Now)
For years, legal tech lagged behind other industries. While finance had CRMs, healthcare had EMRs, and marketing had dashboards — legal teams were still relying on Word docs, PDFs, and inboxes as their core systems.
But something changed.
Clients began expecting faster responses
In-house legal teams faced budget cuts and shrinking headcounts
Regulators demanded better compliance visibility
And a new generation of lawyers wanted tools, not templates
The world was ready for legal automation. It just needed someone to build it for lawyers, not coders.
Adnah Law Was Born
Adnah Law launched with a simple mission:
“Make legal operations smarter, faster, and stress-free — using AI and no-code automation.”
We weren’t building yet another document management system. We were designing legal assistants that worked around your day — not the other way around.
Our first clients were solo lawyers and small firms who couldn’t afford to hire more people but needed to do more.
Then came corporate legal departments.Then came legal aid teams.Then came governments.
What We Actually Do (No Buzzwords, Promise)
At its core, Adnah Law builds:
AI-powered document tools – contracts, wills, affidavits, petitions
Legal CRM systems – client onboarding, reminders, communications
Internal dashboards – matter tracking, deadline management, task flows
Compliance & policy engines – HR, regulatory, or industry-specific
Custom bots & AI agents – to read, summarize, suggest, and act
Everything is:
No-code / low-code
Compliant by design
Tailored to the legal world
Fast to implement (think weeks, not quarters)
From Side Hustle to Global Clients
Adnah Law didn’t grow overnight.
The early days were scrappy. Projects were done manually. Raghav spent nights debugging workflows, testing templates, and hopping on Zoom calls with lawyers in four different time zones.
But word spread — because lawyers talk.
One solo lawyer automated her client intake and doubled her case load.A legal team at a global tech firm cut compliance turnaround time by 80%.A law student launched their own legal startup — built entirely on Adnah’s stack.
Now, Adnah Law powers:
50+ automation projects across 7 countries
Solutions for law firms, legal departments, law schools, and policy teams
A growing team of legal technologists who speak law and build like engineers
Why We’re Different (And Always Will Be)
We don’t see lawyers as slow adopters.We see them as people with too much on their plate, too little time to experiment, and real consequences if things break.
That’s why we build:
Tools that feel natural
Interfaces that are calming, not cluttered
Solutions that don’t require manuals or hand-holding
Custom workflows, because no two lawyers work the same
And we stay close to every client — from the first call to the final build.
“We don’t disappear after onboarding,” Raghav says. “We co-create until it works. That’s the promise.”
The Future: Legal Agents, Smarter Systems, and Real Impact
Adnah Law is now building its next generation of products:
Legal AI Agents that can act on your behalf
Prebuilt internal tools for immigration, real estate, HR law, and more
Industry-specific dashboards for solo lawyers, law firms, and legal ops teams
Partner programs for legal consultants who want to bring automation to their clients
And behind every build is a single idea:
Law doesn’t need to change. The systems around it do.
