“Being a wizard on your computer or being able to put together amazing projects on Garage Band does not mean you can ethically or responsibly handle e-discovery.” Every lawyer needs to understand what e-discovery is and the process of e-discovery, or increasingly risk exposure to malpractice for failure to do due diligence for your client. This […]
Recently, I had the pleasure of spending an entire afternoon with one of my faculty, Deborah Gonzalez. While we were at lunch she went to check her iPhone and I saw her law firm’s logo emblazoned on her iPhone hard plastic protector. Naturally, I asked her where she got it and she told me Zazzle.com.

Everyone dies. Often unexpectedly. But there is power in dead hands. We are the country with the greatest control of our assets after death. However, most never consider, let alone manage, their digital legacy. How do we handle, bequeath (or destroy), our digital immortality from medical information to our life story on facebook? This is […]
I’ve written before that I am opposed to mandating the purchase of professional liability insurance. I’m also not sold on the idea that brand new lawyers must have professional liability insurance. But I know I’m in the minority. The majority of new lawyers want to buy insurance immediately as it gives them peace of mind. However, it can be an extremely […]
I have a confession. I have a crush. I have a crush on a company. Is that possible? Yes, it is. We were very fortunate to come out of hurricane Sandy virtually unscathed. As many of you experienced, are experiencing, or heard, this was a monster storm which has caused upwards of untold billions in damages […]

One person’s Facebook post that he’d been arrested in a foreign country got him help from the […]

As I no longer practice I’ve really had very little reason to stay overly current on the fine print of malpractice policies and this is why, in the course of my research, I was struck by the terminology the ‘Hammer Clause.’ Who was getting hammered?
This post is not for the faint of heart. Nor is it a political post. It is a cold hard look at statistical data (which I’m sure you can supplement anecdotally) on what is happening to wages in this country. And what a (potential) client earns directly impacts the route they will take to address […]
I stumbled across this blog post about an 11 year old company called Vertical Response and the change their company is now going through. This is a company that has done very well for 11 years until one day they realized if they didn’t ‘pivot’ they would fall behind technologically, lose their hard-earned customers and […]
