    The Internet: An Underestimated Discovery Tool

    By Paola Pearson | August 18, 2017

    As lawyers, we are often compelled to "stick to the script" by following in the footsteps of those who came before us, even when that means adopting legalese and using rigid templates that likely made little sense to their drafters. The discovery process is not immune to this phenomenon, following a life cycle that seems almost etched in stone: a series of requests for production of documents, interrogatories or requests for admissions, culminating with depositions laden with questions based on the information and documents received in response.

When properly used, it can serve as a powerful supplement to traditional discovery methods.

    Hightailing to Better Retailing Options

    By Alan Behr | August 18, 2017

    Alan Behr writes: For a company used to being in a real place, employing real people to sell real things, virtual retailing can come as a legal and business shock at first. The competition is just as intense, and Amazon is out there, in front of everybody, but it expands your market from where you are to, potentially, anywhere that anyone can be. The key to legal success is the same as with traditional retailing, only more so: anticipate the likely problems and be ready with solutions before those problems arise.
