Anand Mathew
Principal Attorney
If AI created a lawyer to start an AI-native law firm
Anand has a rare combination of sophisticated legal experience, a background steeped in technology and AI, and time spent building products in the legal technology space. Loop Litigation brings all three together: a law firm powered by sophisticated attorneys using technology and AI to strengthen their work, while keeping attorney judgment and expertise at the forefront.
Anand has nearly 17 years of experience handling high-stakes business disputes — and a technologist's conviction that the practice of law should be driven by data and efficiency, not billable hours. That combination is the foundation Loop Litigation is built on.
Over his career, Anand has practiced at an Am Law 200 firm, co-founded and led a boutique litigation firm, and served as Managing Partner of a data-driven eDiscovery and litigation support firm. He has steered large-scale antitrust cases, class actions, and multi-district litigation, along with a wide range of business disputes spanning contract, fiduciary duty, trade secret, fraud, professional liability, and appellate matters — in state, federal, and appellate courts across the country.
Anand has also spent several years building legal technology products, serving as Product Owner for AI-driven eDiscovery tools — including predictive coding, privilege review, and legal analytics — and as General Counsel advising a legal tech company navigating the rapidly evolving, AI-driven legal landscape. Anand is known for a big-picture, strategic approach: helping clients understand the real nature of a dispute, weigh litigation against alternatives, and pursue a strategy that fits realistic time and cost constraints. He is a persistent advocate for working efficiently — using technology and data to strengthen his clients' positions while keeping costs down.
Before practicing law, Anand worked at a large technology consulting firm, and he has tracked the impact of emerging technology on the legal field ever since. At Loop Litigation, that background is central: the AI agents behind the firm are built to reflect how experienced litigators actually practice.
