Episode Summary In this episode of the Adventures in Legal Tech Podcast, host Jared Correia sits down with attorney Harshita Ganesh to unpack one of the most pressing challenges in modern legal practice: how to responsibly integrate AI into law firms. Using the case of a new associate eager to implement AI in a resistant firm, the conversation explores the tension between innovation and caution. Harshita shares a practical framework based on her firm's experience, including the creation of an AI committee, slow adoption strategies, and the importance of transparency across teams and clients. The discussion goes deeper into the unintended consequences of AI adoption—especially for junior associates. From "shadow AI" usage to declining critical thinking skills, Harshita highlights the risks of over-reliance on automation and the importance of preserving foundational legal training.

EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode of Adventures in Legal Tech, host Jared Correia tackles one of the most persistent frustrations in modern law practice: balancing cybersecurity requirements with everyday usability. Using a fictional law firm scenario, the discussion explores how attorneys can safeguard confidential client information without sacrificing productivity or creating unnecessary workflow friction. Guest Mike Maschke, President and CEO of Sensei Enterprises, breaks down practical cybersecurity strategies tailored for law firms, explaining why resistance to security tools often stems from misunderstanding rather than actual inconvenience. The conversation covers essential topics including multi-factor authentication, encrypted communication, compliance frameworks, AI governance, change management, and emerging cybersecurity trends shaping the legal industry. Rather than presenting cybersecurity as a technical burden, the episode reframes it as a strategic business function — one that protects firms, clients, and long-term operational stability.

In order for any lawyer to be a successful advocate for their client or law firm they must become an excellent dealmaker. However, the secrets to the art of deal closing can seem incredibly elusive to even the most initiated. What are the fundamental tenets of being a good dealmaker, and how does one focus on honing these skills? In this episode of The Legal Toolkit, host Jared Correia sits down with Cohen Gardner LLP Co-Founder Jeff B. Cohen, a former child actor best remembered for his role as Chunk in The Goonies, to discuss dealmaking in the context of the law. The conversation opens with Jeff providing insights into his experiences behind the camera as a child actor and how this unique upbringing influences his perception of entertainment dealmaking. Within these recollections he also discusses how Machiavelli's “The Prince” aided him after his acting career ended and how these teachings inspired his book “The Dealmaker's Ten Commandments: Ten Essential Tools for Business Forged in the Trenches of Hollywood.” Jeff provides a glimpse into his methodologies and why he thinks it's so important for lawyers to effectively manage their time. He then provides a few of his personal commandments and best practices that any legal professional can use to become a more effective and successful dealmaker. Jeff B. Cohen co-founded Cohen Gardner LLP in 2002 and focuses on transactional representation for clients in the entertainment, media and technology verticals. His first book, “The Dealmaker's Ten Commandments: Ten Essential Tools for Business Forged in the Trenches of Hollywood” was published by the American Bar Association's imprint Ankerwycke in 2015. Jeff received his Juris Doctor from UCLA Law School with an emphasis in business law and his undergraduate degree from The University of California at Berkeley, Haas School of Business. While at UC Berkeley, Jeff served as President of the Associated Students of the University of California. Oh, man!

EPISODE SUMMARY In this episode of Adventures in Legal Tech, host Jared Correia speaks with John Pothier, managing partner at Embedded Counsel, about one of the most common challenges lawyers face: launching a law firm without understanding technology. Using the fictional scenario of an in-house attorney ready to go solo but overwhelmed by tech decisions, the conversation breaks down the essential systems, tools, and strategic choices lawyers actually need when starting a modern practice. Rather than focusing on flashy software, the discussion emphasizes practical foundations — collaboration tools, workflow management, AI adoption, pricing models, marketing experimentation, and the realities of transitioning from in-house counsel to entrepreneurship. The episode also explores: Why Google Workspace may outperform traditional setups for small firms How cloud technology has lowered the barrier to starting a law practice The evolving role of AI in legal workflows Subscription and flat-fee pricing models replacing hourly billing Marketing experimentation and networking as growth drivers Burnout risks in in-house roles and the motivation to go independent Building partnerships and fractional legal services practices LINKS & RESOURCES redcavelegal.comembeddedcounsel.com john.pothier@embeddedcounsel.com KEYWORDS Legal tech for startups Starting a law firm Legal technology stack Google Workspace for lawyers Law firm technology basics Fractional general counsel Flat fee legal pricing Subscription legal services AI for lawyers Legal research technology Cloud law practice Legal entrepreneurship In-house counsel transition Law firm marketing strategy Legal networking Practice management tools Law firm automation Legal business development EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS 00:00–01:14 - Introducing a new approach to legal tech conversations 01:14–02:23 - The problem: starting a firm with zero technology knowledge 02:23–03:13 - Why Google Workspace became the foundation of a modern law firm 03:13–04:01 - Microsoft vs Google ecosystems and integration simplicity 04:01–05:11 - Project management challenges in legal practice tools 05:11–06:14 - AI tools lawyers are experimenting with today 06:14–06:57 - Guardrails and risks when using general AI platforms 06:57–07:24 - Cloud technology lowering startup costs for law firms 07:24–08:19 - The minimal tech stack needed to launch a practice 08:19–09:12 - John Pothier's unconventional path into law 09:12–10:08 - Entrepreneurship before traditional legal careers 10:08–11:10 - The reality of working as in-house counsel 11:10–12:19 - Burnout, workload pressure, and limited time off 12:19–13:41 - Why lawyers leave stable roles to start firms 13:41–15:00 - Choosing the right business partner in legal practice 15:00–17:00 - Balancing entrepreneurship with family life and risk 17:00–19:24 - Designing pricing models without industry transparency 19:24–20:37 - Flat fee vs hourly billing and client psychology 20:37–22:30 - The rise of fractional legal services 22:30–23:26 - Marketing experiments that didn't work 23:26–24:47 - Networking as the most reliable growth strategy 24:47–26:22 - Lessons learned from running AI-driven marketing ads 26:22–28:26 - Professional development while managing a law firm

Jared Correia welcomes a true legal tech legend for a record-breaking three-segment appearance. First, Jared and Larry Port (founder of Rocket Matter) crack open a new entry in the "Perfect Album" series: Tom Petty's Full Moon Fever (1989). They debate the merits of the album's solo status, the genius of Jeff Lynne's production, and whether "Free Fallin'" is actually a good song or just California propaganda. Then, in the main interview, Larry discusses life after his successful exit from Rocket Matter. He reveals his new venture, WaySpark, a career coaching platform designed to help young people navigate a volatile labor market shaped by AI, the "silver wave" of retirements, and the decline of white-collar hiring. Larry explains why interpersonal skills are the new currency and why he advocates for the "Family Dinner Test" when choosing a career path. Finally, stick around for the Counter Program: "Hard Work." Jared tests Larry's career coaching expertise with a quiz on bizarre historical and futuristic jobs. Is a "Quantum Janitor" a real thing?

Welcome to Legal Late Night! In this episode, host Jared Correia breaks down the shifting landscape of law firm marketing for 2026 and dives deep into the world of legal education with clinical supervisor Leticia Leal.   First, Jared shares his monologue on the rise of AI Search Optimization (AEO).

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Jared Correia discuss:The evolving role of AI and technology in legal practicesCommon obstacles lawyers face with adopting and implementing tech solutionsStrategies for improving law firm efficiency and productivityTrends in business development and billing models Key Takeaways:Lawyers hesitate to adopt AI due to risk aversion and limited tech savviness, but starting with free tools like ChatGPT can ease the transition.Flat fee billing models align with AI efficiencies, as ethical guidelines discourage charging for time saved through automation.AI tools like Microsoft Copilot and Google Duet AI reduce time on repetitive tasks, allowing lawyers to focus on strategic work.Large firms often beta-test AI in specific practice groups, while smaller firms use off-the-shelf or custom solutions. "I have found that most attorneys...it's a talent acquisition problem these days, not a work acquisition problem. They need to find more lawyers to do the work—another way to look at it is, maybe we need more technology to do the work and deploy that." —  Jared Correia Got a challenge growing your law practice?
