In case you haven’t noticed, technology isirrevocably changing the practice of law. Unfortunately, law schools have not done a good job of keeping up with that trend. Last August, the ABA made it official that lawyers have a duty to maintain competence in technology. Even so, few law schools have made technology part of their curricula.
Kudos, therefore, to Suffolk University Law School in Boston, which has launched theInstitute on Law Practice Technology & Innovation. Here is how it describes itself:
Read original articleThe Institute was established to study how technology is revolutionizing the practice of law, creating both opportunities and challenges for lawyers in every practice setting. The Institute will offer programs, courses, public lectures, and other information designed to educate students, the legal profession, and the public about technology’s transformation of the practice of law and the delivery of legal services.
