Jeifan Dizon
Philippines Founding Ambassador
Co-Founder, ClickCounsel and Head of Regional Legal, ZEN Rooms
Jeifan-Ira is a lawyer with eight years of PQE, with main practice areas in corporate and regulatory law. She graduated her bachelor and Juris Doctor degrees from the University of the Philippines, and has worked both in the private and public sectors—as an associate in the law firms Cochingyan&Peralta and Puno Law and as a staff of the former Speaker of the House of Representatives.
In 2017, she embarked on her solo practice focused on assisting start-ups, as well as launched her collaboration, Dizon|Ross, with her childhood friend and US-based lawyer, Mardi Ross. Currently, Jeifan-Ira serves as Head Regional Legal of Rocket Internet-backed ZEN Rooms. Jeifan-Ira is a staunch advocate of legal technology and innovation in the legal practice, having been inspired both by pain points in her routine drafting tasks as a junior lawyer back in 2011, as well as by her personal encounters with people who have real everyday legal problems but no access to legal advice.
She started working on a platform to address both needs and was able to launch the document automation website on beta. She believes that while Filipino society– lawyers included– is still very much comfortable with receiving (and giving) legal help thru traditional systems and processes, it is high time that technological and cultural advancements be welcomed, for the ultimate good of making it more available and accessible.
