Legaltech West Coast is right around the corner, on July 13 and 14, in San Francisco. Whether it's your first visit to this conference or your eleventh, check out these ideas for making the most of it.

1) Make a Top Three List

In February, many got to Legaltech New York late because of the big storm that grounded and delayed flights. When they finally arrived, attendees realized that they had much less time than expected to meet with colleagues, vendors, and Twitter friends. Though you're not likely to encounter freak snowstorms at Legaltech West Coast, you should still prepare for the unexpected by making a list of your top three priorities, whether they are sessions, people or companies. That way, you won't find yourself reading a session write-up with envy or wondering if you'll ever meet that person you've been tweet chatting with all year.
