The Family Law Section of the Connecticut Bar Association hasn’t exactly been known for their high-tech trailblazing. Yet, Case Flash, a multimedia continuing legal education offering developed by Samuel V. Schoonmaker IV, of Schoonmaker Legal Group in Stamford, with the assistance of retired Superior Court Judge Elaine Gordon, of Gordon ADR in Westbrook, and Allen Gary Palmer, of Halloran & Sage in Westport, is quite possibly the most significant technology contribution the state bar has seen in many years. Case Flash marries continuing legal education and technology in order to bring Family Law Section members the latest state Supreme Court decisions to their email boxes.

Palmer, the incoming Family Law Section chair, describes the concept as, “so simple, we’re surprised nobody’s done it before.” Once members know an important ruling is imminent, Palmer, Schoonmaker and Gordon begin putting together the program, which eventually takes the form of a 15- to 20-minute video with accompanying PowerPoint presentation.
