Listen to Karl Schieneman, President of Remote Review and Consulting at Inspired Review as he moderates what should be a special ESIBYtes show discussing the upcoming LegalTech in New York City from January 29 �¢?? 31. Joining us as guests on this show are Henry Dicker, Vice President of Events at ALM, Executive Director, LegalTech and John Tredennick, CEO of Catalyst a document review and predictive coding software provider and amateur musician being showcased at LegalTech. Henry has been with ALM for 14 years and has been running the LegalTech brand for his entire tenure. LegalTech for those who are un-familiar, is the preeminent legal technology show in the world and is being held in New York City from Tuesday, February 2 through Thursday February 4. The show is held in multiple floors in the midtown Hilton Hotel on 6th Ave and 53rd Street and has a very large trade show with vendors of all sorts who display their latest and greatest technology. In addition, it draws an audience of lawyers, lit support professionals, IT professionals, and other vendors who may not be displaying at the event but still come to network and share information. It is a wonderful few days of socializing if you are like me and have friends in the field across the country and internationally because it is an event that the top people in the field do not miss. But it can be a bit stressful for the novice attendee because it is a large show and there are lots and lots of attendees wandering around. That is one reason we are hosting this show before Legal Tech is to provide advice on how to get the most out of the event.

Listen to Karl Schieneman, President of Review Less and the Hon. John Facciola, retired Judge from the District of Columbia, talk to two technology pioneers in E-Discovery about the challenges of getting the legal community to embrace new technologies. John Tredennick is the CEO and founder of Catalyst and Jay Lieb is the Managing Member of NexLP. We will talk about the challenges of getting lawyers to open their minds and their wallets and grasp newer technology, let alone use it? Every year the most popular CLE program in the country is LegalTech so one would think the desire to learn new technology is rampant among lawyers. Experience in the field would tend to suggest otherwise. We thought it would be interesting to have two entrepreneur technologists on the show to talk about their perspectives on gaining adoption of new technologies in the legal space. This show explores this issue in what should be a lively discussion. For more information about ESIBytes contact us at kas INSERT AT SYMBOL reviewless.com.

Listen to a new format for ESIBytes as serial E-Discovery entrepreneur Karl Schieneman, President of Review Less and who will be joined by Special Host on a recurring basis, the Hon. John Facciola. We will interview those in E-Discovery who are making their marks by trying new approaches and try to get behind the story of their successes into what the world was thinking when they were trying to change the field. We will talk to those who have made historical impacts as well as those today who are trying out new approaches and perhaps are challenging the status quo. We hope to provide a unique view into risk taking in E-Discovery from the perspective of those who have or are taking risks and also analyze the important role that mentoring plays in the lives of our guests both looking backwards and looking forward. Our first guest for this program will be Patrick Oot, a Shareholder at Shook Hardy& Bacon who has had well publicized stints at the SEC overseeing e-Discovery, Verizon where he oversaw e-Discovery and helped Verizon be named as a Top 10 Most Innovative legal groups by Inside Counsel magazine in 2007, and has been influential in spearheading research into better review approaches with people and technology as a founding member of the e-Discovery Institute. We are thrilled that Patrick has agreed to join us as we launch a new version of ESIBytes.
