Speaking of change, with this issue we’re launching a new feature: “Tech Counsel,” which will rotate with our “Technology on Trial” column. The idea behind “Tech Counsel” came from the dismal figures from the most recent American Bar Association Legal Technology Survey, which found that only about half of respondents said they have any kind of litigation support software at their firms, and of those, only 31 percent use it regularly.
We’ve reported in these pages about the various causes of lawyers’ resistance to adopting legal technology tools — which range from fear of embarrassment, being overwhelmed by too many choices, worries about cost, Baby Boomer’s long-embedded cultural attitudes (only the “girls” type); and worries that better productivity might lower the lawyers’ bottom line.
