Managing Client Expectations in an Amazon World
Recognizing and Addressing Common Security Threats in Your Law Firm
With laptops, smartphones, and persistent internet, lawyers are only a call, text, or email away from business and client demands, long after “normal” business hours have ended. More often than not, technology takes the blame for added anxiety in our lives. But we can certainly turn the tables on it and use technology to our advantage. Simple and affordable tools, services, and apps can be used to help busy lawyers reduce stress, boost mental and emotional health and help to deliver superlative client service.
