NEW YORK, NY -

OpenLaw

has partnered with global digital legal services pioneer

Rocket Lawyer

to demonstrate how blockchain technology can be used to better manage commercial relationships using “smart” legal contracts.
The OpenLaw and Rocket Lawyer collaboration will first center on a standard sales agreement (a bill of sale). Rocket Lawyer, one of the premier online legal technology companies for providing legal services to businesses and individuals, will offer their customers the ability to leverage blockchain technology with a new digital

Rocket Wallet ™

. This is the first step in making blockchain-based contracts accessible to the millions of Rocket Lawyer customers. In the near future, Rocket Lawyer customers using Rocket Wallet ™ , will have the opportunity to use smart contracts to facilitate the creation and execution of their legal contracts, securely and instantaneously transfer payments, and track transaction performance on the Ethereum blockchain. This will be the first time a mainstream consumer-facing application has successfully integrated blockchain technology into everyday legal transactions.
Rocket Lawyer’s blockchain integration offers tangible and impactful benefits for businesses and individuals seeking legal services. Both Rocket Lawyer and OpenLaw share a mission to increase the accessibility of legal services to all.
Interested parties can sign up for the Rocket Wallet ™ Beta
