In this episode of Trending Now - An IP Podcast, Janet Cho and Rob Van Arnam discuss the basics of AI and CHATGPT, how they can be used in contracts, their benefits, and risks.
At an early age, Feargus MacDaeid, the founder of legal tech company Definely, was diagnosed with retinitis pigmentosa, which is a rare eye disease that breaks down cells in the retina slowly over time causing vision loss. Until he got to college to study computer science, Feargus' vision was decent, but at university, it began to deteriorate and eventually went blind. After college he landed a couple of tech jobs but ultimately decided to go to law school. After law school, Feargus took jobs at two Magic Circle Firms in London, Allen & Overy and Freshfields where he was working on mergers and acquisitions. Because of his visual impairment, Feargus had to develop hacks in the software he used, like custom keyboard shortcuts, to get his job done. He met his Definely co-founder, Nnamdi Emelifeonwu, at Freshfields when the two of them were working on the same deal. As Feargus explains it, his soon to be co-founder was the first colleague that actually took an interest in how Feargus accomplished his work and marveled that he was getting it done. The two figured there had to be a better way for Feargus to work on contracts, but the duo figured out pretty quickly there really wasn't and Definely was born. Definely is a suite of tools that helps lawyers accomplish the tedious tasks relating to the drafting of contracts. As the company describes it, they create legal tech solutions to free lawyers from frustrating, repetitive tasks, so they can get back to the work that matters.

With Paul Swegle, general counsel to a variety of tech companies and advisor to a dozen others as outside counsel. To date, he has served as general counsel to thirteen companies and has completed $12+ billion of financings and M&A deals, including growing and selling startups to public companies ING, Capital One, Nortek, and Abbott. Join us for this fabulous conversation with Paul Swegle about startup law and fundraising for entrepreneurs. Paul covers important issues to consider when planning for fundraising, including how and when to bootstrap, vs. getting outside funding. We talk about lifestyle companies vs. traditional startups, and what it takes to build a solid foundation regardless of your business. We also discuss what entrepreneurs often get wrong in the early stages of business, including how entrepreneurs create accidental partnerships and general partnerships, which can put their business, ideas, and intellectual property at risk. We discuss the absolute importance of documentation, choosing the right entity at the start, the importance of creating a legal budget as part of your business planning, and so much more! Paul's first book, "Contract Drafting and Negotiation for Entrepreneurs and Business Professionals," shares what he's learned working on thousands of agreements across varied industries for over 20 years. It's all about avoiding common contract pitfalls and maximizing commercial relationships. It's also a frequent Amazon bestseller in business law. Law schools and business programs across the country use it, as do law firms and in-house law, procurement, and sales departments. Paul's second book, "Startup Law and Fundraising for Entrepreneurs and Startup Advisors," was published on July 23, 2020, and is about helping entrepreneurs do three things: - build their companies on a solid foundation, - avoid costly and distracting legal and regulatory mistakes, and - raise the money they need to succeed. Anyone interested in startups and small businesses will find Startup Law and Fundraising invaluable. But it is also designed to provide a turnkey entrepreneurial law and finance class at any level, including law school, MBA, undergraduate business, community college, or startup accelerator. Paul's third book, "Careers in the Law," will be published in late 2021. It profiles more than 200 areas of law, plus many non-law alternatives for law degree holders. As a busy practicing attorney and leader in the legal profession, Paul interacts daily with attorneys across many different areas of the law. He has mentored and advised hundreds of law students and attorneys. At all times, his several companies have engagements in place with 20+ law firms across the country and globally. As a bar leader, Paul has a front-row perspective on the impacts of technology and other forces on the legal profession. Careers in the law will be a uniquely rich, insightful, and timely look at law careers and non-law career alternatives, with insights from hundreds of attorneys. Paul is also an adjunct law professor and teaches entrepreneurial law and finance at Seattle University School of Law. He was a lawyer for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Department of Justice early in his career.

This week on LawNext, we get to reveal a project that could change the face of contracting for small businesses worldwide. Pulse -- backed by LegalZoom -- is a new initiative to deliver better contracts to small businesses. And to help develop it, Pulse has hired widely known contract-drafting specialist Ken Adams, author of the blog Adams on Contract Drafting. On this episode of LawNext, Adams and Chas Rampenthal, LegalZoom’s general counsel, join host Bob Ambrogi to provide details on Adams’ new role as head of contracts and the system they are building to give small businesses a better contracting experience -- one that is driven more by expertise than by technology alone. This episode gets kind of meta for us here at LawNext. Rampenthal was our guest for a show last August. After hearing the episode, Adams reached out to Ambrogi to ask if he would make an introduction to Rampenthal. Ambrogi did, and that led eventually to Adams’ hiring and the launch of this new project. NEW: We are now on Patreon!

Greg is a real estate attorney and the President of First Alliance Title. Greg does a great job of presenting the "nuts and bolts" of wholesaling. Personally, I learned a lot more than I expected!

Wholesaling method #1: Assignment of contract. Wholesaling method #2: Back-to-back or double closing. Wholesaling method #3: Transfer of entity.
