Will the Rise of the Machine Bring Lawyers New Clients?
June 23, 2014
Online kits to do you taxes or make a will are one thing, but robotic doctors and automated architects are another entirely. Tom Meltzer in a story in The Guardian explores how the professions could be at risk in the digital age and what, exactly, that means for lawyers. “Economists and futurists know it’s not all doom and gloom, but it is all change,” said Meltzer. He cites research by Associated Press reporters who analyzed employment data and found that contrary to popular belief, it’s...

April 16, 2014
The famed Richard Susskind closed down ReInvent Law NYC with a big look forward, and also a look back, on artificial intelligence in the field of law.

Is There a Future for Solos and Small Firms?
December 14, 2013
“I do not see much of a future (beyond 2020) for most small firms ….” — Richard Susskind, Tomorrow’s Lawyers Will the next 5–10 years really see the end of solos and small law firms? I’ve heard Susskind talk before, but today, I sat down with him at the William Mitchell College of Law to find out more about his predictions as they pertain to small law firms.

Backward, Forward Book Review: Richard Susskind, Soothsayer
October 21, 2013
Present day commentators, as a rule, have nothing but wonderful things to say about U.K.-based Richard Susskind, whose most recent book is Tomorrow’s Lawyers. We thought it would be fun to take a look backward at Susskind’s earliest book, The Future of Law (1998 – revised in paperback from the 1995 edition). We do so fondly — his predictions were made a long time ago — and we ourselves have eaten so much liberally-salted crow pie with respect to our own predictions that we have practically...

Who Represents America’s Biggest Companies 2013
September 20, 2013
Even casual readers of the financial media may have noticed a certain pattern lately. With every new report about unemployment, factory utilization, or home/auto sales, forecasters and pundits alike seek to reassure us that we're out of the Great Recession, which began in 2008. Is it back to normal yet? In the United States, at least, the signs are somewhat promising. The sickening skid in real estate prices has been arrested, the auto industry is on track to sell some 16 million vehicles this...
