How do we work?
Our work is based on a personalized approach and a virtual office, using modern technologies that allow us to resolve your challenges efficiently, regardless of geographical location.
Through three key steps, we turn your problem into a solution:
1. We get to know you and your situation
The first step is to carefully listen to you or review your electronic submission. Instead of applying a standard approach, we dedicate ourselves to understanding your unique situation and defining your goals and expectations. Our strategy is always tailored to you, not the other way around.
2. We innovatively create strategy
Using our Legal Design Thinking approach and cutting-edge digital tools, we thoroughly analyze your case from multiple angles. We create a proactive and comprehensive strategy that not only addresses the current issue but also safeguards you in the future.
3. We act globally, communicate locally
Thanks to modern technologies, we operate efficiently regardless of your geographic location—even when we are abroad. Through transparent communication and regular updates, you are always informed, secure, and aware of your case’s progress, knowing it is in good hands.
How can we help you?
With Juris Design, you receive more than legal assistance—you gain security, transparency, and a proactive approach. Our goal is to relieve you of legal concerns, allowing you to focus on what matters most. Through our expertise and personalized approach, we help you to:
- Understand your rights and obligations
- Resolve legal issues efficiently
- Protect your interests and assets
What sets us apart?
Our goal is clear:
To transform complex legal challenges into clear, intuitive, and effective solutions, placing you – the client – at the very center of the process.
Here is how it works:
- In-depth understanding
We carefully listen to your problem – truly listen. We understand from your perspective. Rather than focusing only on legal facts, we look deeper into your real needs, goals, intentions, and concerns. This allows us to define the challenge precisely and lay the foundation for the right solution.
- Creating innovative solutions
Based on detailed insight, we design various options. We reject standard responses and pursue innovative solutions perfectly tailored to your unique situation.
- Application and transparency
We shape the optimal solution into a clear and practical action plan. Whether it’s a comprehensible legal document or an effective strategy for a court case, the focus is always on applicability and achieving the desired outcome. The end result is a legal solution tailored to you, turning the law into your ally.
- A broader perspective
Through Legal Design Thinking, Juris Design not only addresses your current legal challenges but also provides you with a clearer path forward and greater control over your legal future. We believe that the law should support your progress, not hinder it. Our methodology ensures that you receive legal solutions that are not only correct, but also practical, understandable, and tailored to your specific needs.
What do you gain with us?
We merge law and design to create intuitive and efficient legal solutions. Have you ever felt overwhelmed by complicated legal documents or court proceedings? Instead of struggling with unclear terminology and complex procedures, we transform them into clear, visual, and user-friendly solutions, such as:
Simplified understanding Legal documents and contracts become transparent and easy to grasp.
Improved efficiency We optimize legal processes, saving you time and resources.
User-focused approach Your needs are at the center of every solution we create.

AI Law through Legal Design Thinking
The development of artificial intelligence (AI) opens up limitless opportunities but also presents complex legal and ethical challenges. Our approach leverages Legal Design Thinking to transform regulatory complexity (such as the EU AI Act and GDPR) into a clear, actionable strategy seamlessly integrated into the AI development process. Our goal is to ensure that your AI innovation is not only technologically advanced but also legally flawless.
Our services are structured according to the AI project lifecycle, from concept to market deployment.
