Mr. Gormakh is the principal designer of Law Ledgers' patent-pending trust-accounting platform — a ledger architecture that enforces beneficiary-level fund segregation, concurrency-safe disbursement, and post-settlement immutability at the database layer, so certain classes of trust-account error are structurally impossible rather than caught after the fact.
