Tech enabled lawyer: a guide to making the most of the tools you have and spotting the tech you need
Sure there is scope for improvement in your legal practice, but you don't actually know what you could do to be more efficient?
All the law tech options that promise something new and different leaving you in endless decision paralysis?
Frustrated by how long it takes to make collective decisions to change the way things are done?
Whether you are working in a traditional law firm, a fledgling NewLaw business, a government department with inflexible systems or an in-house legal department with no budget, tech enabled lawyers are more valuable than ever to their clients and to their legal businesses.
As lawyers, we can change how we work, but not by signing up for yet another shiny tech solution we will barely use. Tech Enabled Lawyer cuts through the endless noise about tech and innovation to guide you to a better way by making the most of your existing tech. This practical, commonsense guide follows a five-step framework to help you find the right next step to be more tech enabled.
