On this episode of Startup Foundations, we chat with Dorna Moini, who is the CEO and founder of Documate, a startup building no-code document solutions for lawyers & law firms.

Dorna talks about her experience as a lawyer, how she came up with the idea for Documate while doing pro bono work for victims of domestic violence, and how she eventually left her career in law behind to build Documate.
Dorna talks about how she met her cofounder Michael Joseph years before they started working together on the product.
Dorna discusses broader trends in the legal services market and how legal tech software can make legal services more accessible in the United States.
She shares how Documate evolved from a software tool supporting legal aid organizations to a comprehensive no-code platform streamlining data acquisition and contract generation for legal professionals. The conversation concludes with Dorna offering words of wisdom for first-time founders about the importance of getting user feedback for your product when building a new product.
