Technology for Managing the 21st Century Law Firm

Course Overview

The right law practice technology is no longer only a productivity matter. Technology systems now manage operations, communication, security and marketing. In this course you will learn best practices for establishing or expanding your firm’s technology infrastructure, with a strong focus on the ethics basis for ensuring that your technology systems are up to speed.

As lawyers complete more work using technology tools, communicate more frequentl online and via email and store more sensitive client data on networks, an expanding duty of care is developing. In addition, as more law firms choose to use technology tools for sales and marketing, new interpretations of the ethics rules are occurring. Failure to understand the new standards of care or leverage the new rules of sales and marketing will increase a firm’s risk of malpractice and reduce its ability to compete.

Firms with a high level of technology proficiency can use this seminar as a best practices audit. Firms that are not yet leveraging the power of technology can use this seminar to make better choices about what tools and systems to employ.
