Welcome to Crosby, the next-generation law company! We’re a team of technologists and legal experts collaborating closely to reimagine corporate legal services from the ground up. We build proprietary technology and human in the loop workflows to radically enhance the lawyer machine relationship. Our mission is to review complex documents faster than ever and with perfect quality. Crosby was founded by Ryan (Penn, Stanford Law, ex Cooley, former GC) and John (Penn M&T, ex Ramp, ex Google). We believe: A great legal system is the watermark of a great society. Legal work is an art and science.
