Future-Proofing Your Law Firm
May 25, 2013
THE FUTURE OF PRIVATE LAW PRACTICE has been a subject of much speculation the last several years. While some law firm partners behave as if they believe things will go back to business as usual, most of those who are paying attention believe we are headed to a “new normal” in our future. Among the factors cited to support this proposition are business clients more engaged in negotiating legal fees, an overexpansion of law schools that has led to more attorneys entering an already packed job market,...

May 21, 2013
Claims has long waited its turn at the table for technology investment dollars, but recent trends suggest the fortunes of claims departments are improving. Organizations that take a strategic view of claims technology—and can articulate the benefits to those who hold the purse strings—are best positioned to get their fair share of the budget pie.

Can This Y-Combinator Startup’s Technology Keep Couples Out Of Divorce Court?
May 19, 2013
Last year just over 2 million American couples tied the knot. In the same time 800,000 married couples filed for divorce, underscoring the oft-quoted statistic that nearly half of all marriages will end in a split.

So it’s not entirely surprising that the enterprising startup set are looking to get in on the action. One new entry to the landscape is less...
