Peter D. Bergsman and Fred D. Fagg, III
Peter D. Bergsman and Fred D. Fagg, III, were pioneers on the Professional Computer Utilization Project at the Lewis and Clark Law School in Portland Oregon in the early 80s. That program eventually evolved into Expert Systems Publishing Company, trademarked as Lawgic in 1998.
In the 1970s, Peter developed software and computers for Burroughs Corporation. After founding what would become Lawgic with Dean Fagg, he was the programming brains behind their products from 1984 through 2001. He is now retired, as both a lawyer and a software engineer, but continues to contribute to the company in several consulting capacities.
Fred began his legal career excelling in complex litigation in Los Angeles before becoming a professor, and then Dean, of the Lewis and Clark Law School in Portland Oregon. At L&C he joined with Peter in creating a software system for lawyers to capture their ideas and work product. After leaving L&C, Fred continued practicing law while developing Lawgic as a viable company. Fred died in April of 2002.

Founding Technology
In 1988, the late Fred D. Fagg, former Dean of the Lewis & Clark Law School , secured a grant from the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust to pursue high-level software research at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, Oregon. Mr. Fagg and his team of programmers spent several years and over $10,000,000 designing a software program that combines an authoring tool and a run-time engine. It allows professionals to capture their practice knowledge and procedures and to dynamically apply that knowledge based on the unique circumstances of a matter. The program is protected by numerous patents.
