Law Technology News sends warm wishes to you and yours for a wonderful, safe, inspiring new year! Of course we could not resist the obvious—a chance to hear from our readers about their predictions for the shiny fresh year ahead. For the next few days we’ll bring you the soothsaying of our legal technology community. This is the fourth in the series, see No. 1 here, No. 2 here and No. 3 here. Items may be slightly edited for length and clarity.
