In the age of data analytics, the importance of human intelligence is often underestimated. But as any lawyer can attest, the ability to consult with peers on issues affecting the profession is essential to navigating the rapidly changing legal landscape.

At the Daily Business Review, the feedback we receive from our readers every day is invaluable in helping us shape our coverage to ensure we're delivering smart, relevant and useful news and analysis every day.

With that in mind, we're launching a regular poll to gauge how our readers view the issues that impact them most. We hope your responses will offer insights into the current climate of both the practice and business of law, as well as perhaps a glimpse into the future. We look forward to hearing from you!

We're opening with a hot-button question on the subject of civility in the legal profession — or lack thereof.

Is attorney professionalism and civility at an all-time low? Or is the legal profession still a place where decency, courtesy and dignity prevail over short tempers and ill manners? Share your thoughts with us by taking a very quick survey. Your responses are confidential. We look forward to hearing from you.
