As usual, legal bloggers attended and presented at ABA Techshow in force—and often, they shared key information and their own thoughts online after all was said and done.
For the fifth year, LexThink.1—which gathers speakers for six-minute presentations around a central law practice theme—took place on the eve of Techshow. MyCase blogger Nikki Black noted the presentations she felt stood out. Among them was one from Scott Malouf, a Massachusetts litigator and e-discovery consultant. Malouf focused his presentation primarily on social media and legal ethics and “discussed the problems with the current set of rules regarding lawyers’ use of social media and advocated for a change of mindset and more uniformity on the part of the bodies of regulators that enact rules about social media use. He suggested focusing on the harms most likely to occur and the sites where they occur and draft rules accordingly.”
