Socrates once said, “The unexamined life is not worth living” – very wise words indeed - so in the past 6 weeks on Legal Technology Observer (LTO), we have set out to examine the trends, topics and perspectives that are driving today’s legal technology world. We have had more than 18,000 readers visit the blog! With the insightful help of many of the industry’s most respected experts (see list below), we have been able to provide practical, useful and relevant information to reach exponentially more lawyers, IT and administrative staff and bring them into the legal technology conversation.
What’s more, we have proven that there are plenty of resources available for lawyers, legal staff and technologists to access in order to build their knowledge of legal tech.
As many of our featured experts said, legal technology and electronic discovery issues are not going away – in fact, they are on the upswing. So, rather than being discouraged and viewing this as a lot of extra work, perhaps instead we can focus on how fascinating these topics can be and that knowing more about them helps us do our jobs better.
Objectively, it makes common sense to take on learning proactively rather than waiting for the worst to happen, even if doing so seems less convenient at first. British writer Gilbert K. Chesterton said, “An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered.”
Legal Technology Observer has truly been an adventure for our Burke & Company staff writers including Melissa DiMercurio, Ada Spahija, Taylor Gould and me. We are exceedingly grateful to all the experts who worked with us, and also to those of you who read, commented, tweeted and reposted our content.
And most of all, we are thankful to Rob Ameerun, owner of Legal IT Professionals, who worked with us daily to produce this blog, and who works tirelessly every day to help thought leaders and vendors get their valuable news out to the world. Thank you, Rob!
This final piece officially completes our 6-week LTO experiment, but the discussions don’t need to end here. Please continue to write comments about individual posts, send us feedback about the series as a whole, or feel free to suggest a topic for LTO, in case we have a sequel!
