Guest Michael C. Duff, professor at the St. Louis University School of Law, explores the evolving field of mental health injuries in the Workers' Comp world. Stress and workplace trauma is real, and recognition of these injuries is developing, but there are still complicating factors. Did workplace stress cause a heart attack, or was there underlying heart damage? What constitutes post-traumatic stress, and at what point did that stress occur on the job? There's a lot to unpack. Daily on-the-job stress versus something truly unusual at the workplace; cumulative versus traumatic stress; faking versus real injury; causation; and privacy (HIPAA) all factor into a decision regarding compensation. We all know a broken arm when we see it. But understanding a damaged mind can be tricky. First responders, air traffic controllers, and factory workers all face stresses, but not all stress is the same. Hear how jurisdictions differ in their view of psychological injury Workers' Comp claims.

Effective partnerships between dermatologists and oncologists are an essential component of care coordination for patients with advanced non-melanoma skin cancers. This interprofessional collaboration can be more challenging in the community setting, where fewer resources are available in comparison to large academic medical centers. In this podcast episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Emily Smith, MD, associate professor of Dermatology at St. Louis University School of Medicine, about best practices for early referral from dermatology and how to identify high-risk patients. “It's impossible to read through every single journal that comes out every single day. There are really nice email listservs that [community] providers can sign up for that will provide updates—the American Academy of Dermatology host[s] guidelines for the care and management of different cancers: cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma [and] basal cell carcinoma being two of them, and they are updated on a cyclical basis. Those are great guidelines to just ensure…that they are reviewed and that current practices are following those guidelines.”—Emily Smith, MD Emily Smith, MD Associate Professor of Dermatology Department of Dermatology St. Louis University School of Medicine St. Louis, MO This podcast was made possible with support from Regeneron.

The GIRAF team meets weekly to discuss patient cases and review updates provided by the patients' parents/caregivers. This enables the team to make proactive, systematic adjustments to each patient's nutrition therapy. Dr. Mangalat shares that the name “GIRAF” was coined by their registered dietitian while attending an ASPEN meeting. Dr. Mangalat holds nutrition education very close to her heart and notes several gaps in the current medical education curriculums. Dr. Mangalat is the director of the pediatric gastrointestinal fellowship program and offers some insight into how we can engage future physicians to get involved in nutrition. She advises young professionals to not be afraid to say “yes” when it relates to their career and to explore if they are curious. Whether an avenue has been explored or not, Dr. Mangalat encourages others to think, “Why not me?” when researching something they have questions about. Physician Spotlight is a forum for outstanding Senior Leaders, Young Rising Stars, and International Colleagues in the field of nutrition to discuss important topics and ideas that impact patient care.

In midst of the pandemic, among the many urgent public demands, Chicago took the time to assess the propriety of monuments to historical figures like Abraham Lincoln. Cities across the country are grappling with the legacy of such figures, many of whom did not live perfect lives. Chicago's effort was part of a larger social movement to remove from sight, or to hold accountable, historical and contemporary figures, including Christopher Columbus, Thomas Jefferson, Dr. Seuss, Woodrow Wilson, J.K. Rowling, and even Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant. Americans are now regularly “cancelled” for actions and statements made many years ago. Is "cancel culture" an important tool of social justice or a new form of intimidation by the powerful? Does canceling someone work to deter bad behavior? How does cancellation and its potential to chill speech interact with the First Amendment? Speakers:Prof. Nadine Strossen, John Marshall Harlan II Professor of Law, Emerita, New York Law School & Former President, American Civil Liberties UnionJonathan D. Urick, Associate Chief Counsel, U.S. Chamber of Commerce Litigation CenterProf. Anders Walker, Lillie Myers Professor of Law; Professor of History, St. Louis University School of LawModerator: Hon.

Carrie Thompson, MD, is a Consultant in the Division of Hematology, an Associate Professor of Medicine, and the Director of the Internal Medicine Residency Program at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Dr. Thompson completed her medical school from St. Louis University School of Medicine and residency in internal medicine from the Mayo Clinic where she continued her fellowship in hematology-oncology. Her clinical practice focuses on hematologic cancers with a special focus on lymphomas, and aligns with her research interest in studying quality of life and long-term issues in lymphoma survivors. She's passionate about education and mentorship, and has been awarded Teacher of the Year and Excellence in Teaching awards at Mayo. Dr. Thompson is also a Fellow of the Academy of Educational Excellence at the Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science. There is a reason why Mayo Clinic has been so successful for over 100 years. Today, Dr. Carrie Thompson shares why: It comes down to collaboration. She reminds us that medicine isn't a one-on-one relationship between the doctor and the patient. It takes teamwork, respect, and communication to provide the best care for patients. Dr. Thompson also shares what she finds most fulfilling about mentoring: It's helping her mentees find success beyond just the research paper they are writing. She uses her past experience—and what she's learned from her former mentors—to carry the torch. And although there will be many U-turns, right turns, and left turns throughout our career, Dr. Thompson encourages us to take one step at a time. And to keep our mind open to opportunities—we never know what's just around the corner. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. Patient-centric organizations are successful because of collaboration and teamwork. It is remembering that the patient and doctor is not a one-on-one relationship. It takes a team. 2. Medicine is a long career with many different opportunities. Don't try to do everything at once. Take one step at a time and you will be amazed at what you're able to achieve in the long haul. 3. Live in the present. Try not to put your personal life on hold waiting for a certain time to pass. As we move forward, each new phase in our careers will present new challenges. 4. Mentors can't read our minds. The key to building rich relationships with our mentors is spending time self-reflecting and identifying areas that we need to grow in.
Fred Buckhold, MD, is the Program Director for the Internal Medicine Residency Program and an Associate Professor of Medicine at Saint. Louis University School of Medicine. Dr. Buckhold completed his training from Saint Louis University and has pursued his interest in hospital medicine and medical education. His research interests include reducing unnecessary care interventions and costs while maintaining quality patient outcomes, as well as enhancing residents and physicians use of the electronic medical record. It's not the hand you are dealt. It is what you do with that hand that matters. Today, Dr. Fred Buckhold teaches us that every setback is an opportunity to find a new solution, to overcome a new challenge, and to learn more about yourself. He believes that virtues like humility, hard work, and honesty are not gifts, rather can be developed if we deliberately work towards them. When it comes to mentorship, Dr. Buckhold believes the best mentees are the ones who meet a mentor halfway: They don't ask a mentor to solve a problem, they ask what they can do to help a mentor solve that problem. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. Hard work, humility, and honesty can be developed if we work toward it. They are not gifts, rather 'muscles' we can work on and build. 2. We should give the benefit of doubt to those who are ahead of us, even when they seem unreasonable at times with what we are capable of achieving. The truth is, we really don't 'realize' our potential until we 'realize' it. 3. Come with the solution to your mentor rather than the problem. A critical question is: What can I do to help you solve this problem?

On this special Valentine's Day episode of ALPS In Brief, Mark sits down with Joshua Lenon, lawyer in residence and data protection officer for Clio, to hear firsthand how cloud products can make your law practice more secure and efficient. Fall in love with new features of law practice management and growth software that will keep your data safe and sound. Transcript: MARK: Hello, this Mark Bassingthwaighte the risk manager with ALPS and welcome to another podcast, ALPS In Brief, the podcast that comes to you from the historic Florence Building in beautiful downtown Missoula, Montana. And I'm so pleased to have as our guest today Joshua Lenon, who is a lawyer in residence with Clio. And Joshua has done a podcast earlier with us in terms of one of our early initial podcasts, and I just wanted to invite Joshua back to discuss some developments in Clio. But Joshua, before we jump in can you just share a little bit about yourself for those that may not have heard the first podcast? JOSHUA: Sure. Thanks, Mark. It's really nice to be here. So, I'm Joshua Lennon, I'm Clio's lawyer in residence, and that means I am attorney admitted to New York, but I help Clio out of Vancouver, Canada with legal research into the intersection of technology in the practice of law. I also serve as Clio's data protection officer, helping us with compliance issues and research into the special privacy and confidentiality needs of legal technology and how we can really increase the security and protection of both law firms and their clients through the use of technology. I've been doing this for about six years now, I've been really lucky to be a part of the explosive growth of Clio and I quite frankly have one of the best jobs in law, I think. MARK: I would agree. What has happened with Clio is really exciting. One of the reasons I wanted to visit with you is Clio has recently celebrated their 10th anniversary, as I understand it, and I've also heard that your 2018 Clio Cloud Conference, which occurred last fall in New Orleans was quite an event. And I thought we'd just start out by having you share sort of what's going on. What are the exciting things that ... What made 2018 a big year for Clio? JOSHUA: So, there are a couple things that made 2018 a really big year for Clio. One of the words that leaps to mind is “growth.” We've grown both externally in terms of the number of law firms that we work with. We now currently work with 170,000 legal professionals in 90 countries around the world. We also have continued to grow our relationships with organizations like Bar Associations and law societies, whereas we're now offered as a member benefit by 66 different Bar Associations and law societies around the world. Excitingly, one of the oldest law societies in the world, the Law Society of England and Wales is now offering Clio as its exclusive cloud based member benefit, which is kind of cool. So, we get to go over to England and visit amazing historic locations that have influenced the common law around the world. So, that's been really cool. MARK: That is cool now. It just underscores you do have a very cool job. Please continue, what other exciting things are going on? JOSHUA: We're growing like a weed internally at Clio as well. So, we actually just topped 350 employees, so that's 350 experts in their field, either building the backend of Clio or providing award-winning customer support to our customers. And one of the things that kind of leapt our head count forward is we acquired our integration partner Lexicata. What's interesting is because we're cloud-based, we actually integrate with a lot of different pieces of software out there, so not just things like the email that a law firm uses, but also highly specialized tools that target the legal industry. And we have approximately 160 integration partners right now, and one of our oldest and most popular is a company called Lexicata. They designed a client intake application that enables firms to really walk a potential client through the discovery phase, the consultation phase, and finally the retention phase of becoming a client with the law firm. And we realized that this was an area of legal technology that we could be performing better at, and so we took a look like any organization does. Do we go out and buy a piece of software that does that, or we build it ourselves? And we had such a great fit, both organically and technically with Lexicata that it just made sense to merge. And so it's our first acquisition ever as a company. We brought on 30 new employees in office in L.A. and a whole new software suite, which means that we now help law firms not only manage their practice but manage the onboarding of clients into their practice. And that's been an incredible accomplishment in 2018. MARK: Yeah, that's a really big deal and kudos to you guys. That's exciting news, that really is. One of the things that I took note of from the cloud conference ... I didn't attend but I have been on the site and just looking at all the different speakers and it looked like it was a fantastic conference. But I was very interested too in the Legal Trends Report. And you had given a presentation not too long ago, I believe, sort of talking a bit about the legal trends report, and I was interested in ... You talked a bit about lawyer missteps, and I think Lexicata plays into this. Can you kind of explore a little bit what you learned out of Legal Trends and how Clio is helping lawyers? JOSHUA: Absolutely. Yep. So, in case your listeners aren't familiar with the Legal Trends Report, it is an annual report that we've put out for the past three years. We always release it around the Clio Cloud Conference, which tends to be in the autumn, and it focuses on two different types of data. So, the first is data contributed by our customers through the use Clio as software. And I use the word contributed because it's something that you can opt out of, but while we don't look at any confidential information, I want to be very clear about that, we can look at certain meta-data around the way lawyers use Clio. So, for example, lawyers need us to keep track of how long a bill has been open, and is it past due? While we can't see the clients or the amount, we can see that an anonymized aggregate state, so again, very, very at arm's length we can see that certain percentages of bills stay open for a certain percentage of time. And so, that's the type of data that we bring into the Legal Trends Report, but on top of that we also use really extensive outside research on a variety of different topics, both with lawyers, and in 2018 we started talking to clients and how they are interacting with lawyers. What was interesting is, in the client research that we did in 2018, we found that clients are really signaling that they want to work in particular ways with law firms, and when we asked the exact same question to lawyers we found there was mismatch. So, one example is scheduling appointments. It turns out that clients really want a very seamless, single touchpoint method for contacting a law firm and scheduling an appointment. They don't want to do a back and forth in email, they want to be able to pick up the phone or go to a website and just have an appointment made quickly and easily. And we found that lawyers were the opposite. They wanted back and forth, usually because they may not have access to their schedule, or that they may be interrupting other important billable activities. So, there's this mismatch or misstep as you said, between how the clients are expecting to interact with the lawyers and how lawyers are interacting with their clients. We went on in the report to identify eight different areas of mismatch between client expectation and lawyer service and how that can create frustration between the two parties, and may be an issue when it comes time for clients to refer new business to a law firm. MARK: Interesting. Interesting. Just as an aside, is this report available to the general public, or attorneys if they have any interest in taking a look? JOSHUA: Absolutely. So, it's available for free. You can get to it by going to Clio.com/LTR. So, that's C-L-I-O.com/LTR, which is short for the Legal Trends Report. That'll actually take you to a website where you can download all three versions of the Legal Trends Report, that's 2016 through 2018, each with a little bit of unique research in each year. We've also provided some tools on that website based off of the research as well. So, for example, you can actually take a look at the billable rates per practice area, per state for both lawyers and non-lawyers and compare your own rates to them to see if you're charging maybe a premium for a high value product, or if maybe you're thinking about being a volume-based law firm, and are your rates then competitive with the law firms around you? MARK: It sounds like a lot of great information there. JOSHUA: Mm-hmm (affirmative). MARK: Any news on new features being released? JOSHUA: Absolutely. So, in addition to acquiring Lexicata, we've actually been rewriting it and we're launching it in January of 2019 as a completely new system that we're calling Clio Grow. And so it takes all the great features of client intake that Lexicata had already built, puts a little bit of Clio research and design on top of them and makes it more deeply integrative with the Clio Practice Management Solution. So, if you're looking to bring on a client intake tool, it's going to be a seamless experience between the two. In addition to that, within Clio's Practice Management we've actually added a ton of new features. One of the things that has been most well received is we've built in payment plans into Clio right now. In 2017 we added built-in credit card processing because our research found that if a law firm had the ability to accept credit cards, they actually get paid about 33 percent faster. MARK: Yeah, doesn't surprise me at all. JOSHUA: Yeah, and so if we can help our customers have a better accounts receivable, we figured we should. So, we negotiated a very sweetheart exclusive deal with LawPay and LawPay is now built in to Clio and can help you accept credit card payments. If you turn on LawPay in Clio and it's provided at no additional charge, then you can also turn on payment plans and it allows you to take an invoice, structure a series of payments including how often it gets paid, and we'll just run that automatically in the background for you. It's been incredibly well received with people helping individuals in particular, so family law lawyers for example, or traffic and DUI/DWI lawyers are finding it to be a really helpful tool for bringing clients in, helping them afford legal services, and helping the law firm's bottom line. So, that's been an incredibly well received one. One that I think is really neat on top of that is a feature we're calling Clio Launcher, and it is a downloadable plugin that you put on your computer, and any time you see a document in Clio, if you click on it it will just open that document in whatever appropriate piece of software is on your computer. So, if you've got a Word document stored in Clio, for example, you click on it, it'll open in Word and then when you click Save, it will save it directly back up to Clio's servers. So, there's a really seamless now work flow between having Clio as both your billing engine and your document management engine behind your law firm, whereas before we found that people just needed a little bit more of a sync between the two, and they were choosing to integrate tools like Dropbox or Google Drive, which are still there, but now you can get the free unlimited storage that comes included with Clio and not change your workflow at all but have ready access to your documents. MARK: Yeah, yeah. That sounds awesome. JOSHUA: Yeah, I like that one a lot. MARK: Am I correct that Clio is moving into the mobile space as well? JOSHUA: Absolutely. So, we've had a mobile app for years, available on iPhone and Android as well as an iOS tablet app. And what's really interesting is there's been kind of change in mobile architecture. MARK: Okay, alright. JOSHUA: And so this is probably highly technical for your audience but before when you were building apps, you would have to have really highly specialized language depending on the phone you were building it for. And a little while back, app developers realized this was kind of ridiculous. If I have to write the exact same thing in two different languages for an iPhone and an Android phone, that's a huge amount of overhead, and it actually diminishes the ability to improve an app, update it quickly, add new features, because we have to write the exact same thing twice but it different languages. So, there's been a shift and this is mostly led by some of the bigger tech companies out there towards developing single source languages that allow you to develop really quickly. So, Clio's onboard with this. We're converting our mobile apps to this single language which is called React, and we're actually using it to release a variety of different apps, so not just a Clio app now, we actually just put together a free timekeeping app that's available on the iTunes store. So if you are a solo lawyer and you don't really need a full practice management solution, maybe you're just starting out, maybe you're working part time but you still want to keep track of your time, we've got an app for you. And we build feedback cycles into our apps, so if you download it and it's not the right fit there will always be a feedback link, tell us what we can improve. And we're going to keep doing things like that, adding new apps and third party services using rapid development techniques, so that way we can find the best fit for law firms and lawyers out there. MARK: And what is on the horizon for 2019? Any exciting things that- JOSHUA: Oh, so yes, absolutely. One of the things that I'm really excited about is ... We talked a little bit about the Clio Cloud Conference and it was another area of explosive growth for Clio in 2018, and so we had 1,500 lawyers from around the world come and meet with us in New Orleans. And we had, as you said, just absolutely phenomenal speakers. So, we try to pick the best speakers both inside legal as well outside legal, so that way we're learning what works for everybody. So, for example we actually had a great speaker come and talk about stress and how stress is not necessarily a bad thing. It's how you react to stress that needs to be your focus of your attention, right? Not the removal of it. You know? MARK: Right. Right. JOSHUA: We had people from Stanford who came and talked about designing your life, and how we often times think of our professional life as separate from the rest of our life and really it's all just one big continuum. MARK: Yeah. JOSHUA: So, how are you including the idea of your practice as a part of your life? And this is I think really important for lawyers because we consider ourselves professionals. It's an identity as well as a career, and if we're not thinking of that identity as both a part of our personal lives and our professional lives, we feel a lot of stress, for lack of a better word, between the two. So, if we approach it with a clear vision, while we may not be able to eliminate that stress we can definitely control how we react to it and our understanding of how other people are reacting to it as well. I found that to be very eye-opening. MARK: Yeah. JOSHUA: So, 1,500 lawyers, phenomenal speakers, a really great party on top of that, but we ended up outgrowing the conference center that we were at, so there's no way we're going to fit next year, so we decided to move. And in 2019 we're going to be in San Diego, California. MARK: Oh, now there's a nice spot. JOSHUA: Yeah. And we're expecting to add another 500 attendees. MARK: Oh my gosh. JOSHUA: And we're already half sold out, which is amazing. MARK: That really is. Wow. Wow. JOSHUA: Yeah. So, I'm sorry, I sound like I'm really hyping Clio a lot but it's just been a great year. MARK: It has. And you know, why I like to visit with you from time to time ... My role is Risk Manager, but I'm not, again, a traditional Risk Manager in the sense that I manage the risk of the ALPS corporation, I am hired to be a Risk Manager for all of our insureds, and for many attorneys you don't have to be an insured to work with me. Call and ask questions. And I, from a risk perspective for so many reasons just believe strongly in the value of a product like Clio, in terms of ... I could sit here and talk for probably 20 minutes on why I think moving to the cloud is a good idea and doing all of the things that you folks are doing in terms of the tools that you bring to the table for lawyers. I see that as essential. But let me ask in closing here, give you a chance to comment on one thing. What I'm starting to hear a little bit, there is, in light of some of these major breaches that we have seen and crypto jacking and ransomware attacks just being rampant with everybody, but you couple that in terms of the risks of cyber breaches of some sort with what has been a really bad tough year in terms of 2018 with Facebook. I would just like to have you share some thoughts on the value, how would you counter this, "I don't want to move to the cloud because look at Facebook. I don't want to move to the cloud because these guys are next on a major ransomware attack." Do you have some thoughts? JOSHUA: Yeah, I do. I actually think there's never going to be a complete elimination of risk, and I think any technology vendor who tells you that they're 100 percent secure is pulling the wool over your eyes. MARK: That's right. Absolutely. Yeah. JOSHUA: Yeah. MARK: Yeah. JOSHUA: But I do believe that there are vendors out there who are transparent in their security protocols, who are committed to the specific needs of the legal industry and they're definitely very specific, but also are keeping in line with the security requirements of clients and I think this is a really important point that most lawyers don't think about. There's a lot of privacy and security law that is being imposed upon clients right now and those clients are in turn turning to their law firms and saying, "How are you living up to this standard with my files?" And so, you need a tech vendor who recognizes not only your ethical duty of confidentiality, but your client's regulatory duty of privacy, and combines technology in a transparent way to facilitate both. And even that won't eliminate the risk 100 percent. MARK: Oh, right. You're never going to. That's impossible. I hope our listeners understand that. Am I hearing, understanding correctly that what I think differentiates companies like Clio is that when you approach the build, the software and hardware build in terms of how ... Am I hearing that the design from the bottom up is really looking at what are the obligations lawyers have, what are the regulatory issues clients face, and where security is thought through from the beginning as opposed to, "Hey, let's build this cool thing and call it Alexa." I'm not picking on Amazon here, but ... JOSHUA: It's been a bad day for them today, so yeah. MARK: Do you appreciate where I'm going? It sounds like, and I just want to confirm that I'm hearing this correctly, that design in terms of preserving confidences and security are very much part of the design process from the very beginning, as opposed to a last minute, "Oh we should think about that"? JOSHUA: Yeah. Actually there's an industry approach that's called privacy by design and in some instances it's required, legally speaking. So the general data protection regulation out of Europe is really trying to push privacy by design on a whole host of different businesses, but yeah, it absolutely needs to be a part of any consideration when it comes to building technology that handles sensitive data, which I think we're beginning to discover is all technology handles sensitive data at this point. MARK: Yeah. JOSHUA: So, how we do it at Clio is as per our terms of service, we actually take on some of the responsibility of that risk, where we commit ourselves to industry best practices and we are very transparent in whom we use as part of our backend. It's called sub-processors and privacy law under GDPR, so we're required to disclose those sub-processors. We're required to vet those sub-processors. We're required to see that they meet the same contractual obligations to us that we commit to you. And so, there's a shared risk that comes with using a good transparent vendor, but it is a risk and I don't think we can ignore that. I do think that dollar per dollar, cloud computing gives you the best security for your money right now when you pick a transparent reputable vendor and the economies of scale that could be affected with cloud computing outweigh anything a small law firm can put together on their own. And the one other counter point I would give to that is I think a lot of lawyers believe that because they're small that they're also obscure, and that nobody's targeting them. And what we've seen is unfortunately, things like Malware that people may not be targeting them specifically but they're still being caught in these giant dragnets of security risk. MARK: You bet. JOSHUA: And so if you're trying to go it alone, what you're really doing is you're just setting yourself up to be caught in one of these dragnets. MARK: Yeah. I couldn't agree more. I hope our listeners ... That's one to note. Well, listen Joshua, I have taken more time than I think I should. I know you're a busy man here. I really appreciate your taking the time to visit with us, and to all of you listening I hope you found something of value here. My desire with this podcast really is just to try to have you hear firsthand the value of what cloud products can bring to the table in terms of enhancing your practice from a security side, to just creating all kinds of efficiencies. So, if you have been hesitant to look at these kinds of things up till now, I hope you will rethink it. You've got at least one Risk Manager here at ALPS saying hey, this is a really good idea. And from an insurance industry perspective I certainly think now's the time to make a move. So, Joshua, again thank you very much. I appreciate your time. To all of you listening out there, if you have another topic you'd like to hear discussed at some point in the future or a guest you'd like to have join us, please don't hesitate to reach out.

"No one wants to be a quitter" is a common phrase you might hear from time to time. Well, our next guest is going to show us why everyone should be a quitter! Welcome physician and lawyer (yes she's a physician and lawyer) Dr. Lynn Marie Morski. In this episode, we will learn about the art of quitting and how to use quits to increase your happiness in life. Our Guest Lynn Marie Morski MD, Esq. Dr. Lynn Marie Morski is a Quitting Evangelist. She helps people to and through their quits through her book Quitting By Design and her podcast Quit Happens, along with speaking and coaching. She is also a board-certified physician in family medicine and sports medicine, currently working at the Veterans Administration. In addition, she is an attorney and former adjunct law professor at Thomas Jefferson School of Law. Dr. Morski began her professional life as a multimedia designer, then made a major shift and embarked on a medical career which began at St. Louis University School of Medicine, then continued with family medicine residency at the Mayo Clinic and a sports medicine fellowship at the University of Arizona. During this time she was published in the American Journal of Family Medicine and presented at an International meeting of the American Society for Sports Medicine. After obtaining board certification in Family Medicine and a Certificate of Added Qualification in Sports Medicine, Dr. Morski began law school at Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego, CA, where she graduated as valedictorian in December 2014. She was admitted to the California Bar in June 2015. Prior to writing a book and beginning her podcast, she was an adjunct professor of health law at Thomas Jefferson School of Law and served as co-founder, Chief Medical Office and in-house legal counsel for MedRepublic. When not doctoring, lawyering, or preaching the gospel of strategic quitting, Lynn Marie can be found doing yoga, throwing around kettlebells or a steel mace, playing multiple musical instruments and dancing like everyone's watching.

Enjoying relationships, hobbies, and your practice is a recipe for a happy life. Figure out what you want to quit, why you want to quit, and make sure not to repeat it! Give yourself permission to leave something if it doesn't serve you any longer Your feelings might be telling you something: anxiety, frustration, envy, etc., are signals that that maybe we need to quit certain parts of our life. Quitting doesn't have to be all or none (although it can be), quitting small aspects of the things we do in life can enhance our quality of life. Creating a not-to-do list is a powerful tool to organizing your thoughts and creating space for what you might want to do. Two basic types of fear involved in quitting: esoteric and logistical. Esoteric fears are the common fear we all experience inside our heads. Logistical fears are about "how are we going to make this actually work." Logistical fear requires strategy and planning. Cost fallacy: doctors are at risk of committing this. Justifying time, cost, and energy they have put into something as the reason they continue to work the way they do.

If you are not already aware, ALPS proudly partners with Clio, the easy-to-use cloud-based law practice management software company with over 150,000 subscribing lawyers. ALPS policyholders enjoy a 10% lifetime discount on their Clio subscription. We are also lucky to work with Clio to better understand where legal tech is heading and how we can leverage these advancements as they relate to risk management. ALPS Risk Manager Mark Bassingthwaighte connected with Clio's Content Strategist Teresa Matich and Lawyer-in-Residence Joshua Lenon to elaborate on Teresa's recent blog, 10 Predictions for the Next 10 Years of Legal Tech. The predictions were gathered via Clio Advocates, an online community of legal professionals, legal tech visionaries, and Clio team members. The discussion unearthed some of their most interesting findings. Joshua also weighed in on why lawyers should innovate their practices to avoid risk rather than maintaining the status quo out of fear of the unknown. Joshua also discussed how Clio is helping the legal community innovate intelligently through its million dollar development fund. ALPS In Brief, The ALPS Risk Management Podcast, is hosted by ALPS Risk Manager, Mark Bassingthwaighte. Transcript: MARK: Welcome to another episode of ALPS in Brief, the ALPS risk management podcast. We're coming to you from the ALPS home office in the historic Florence building in beautiful downtown Missoula, Montana. I'm Mark Bassingthwaighte, the ALPS risk manager, and I have the pleasure of sitting down today with Teresa Matich and Joshua Lenon, both with Clio, a company that delivers cloud-based practice management technologies to lawyers worldwide. Teresa, Joshua, welcome. It's a pleasure. Before we jump into the conversation we're about to have, can you just take a few brief moments and tell our listeners a little bit about yourselves? TERESA: Sure. I'm Teresa Matich. I'm a content strategist at Clio, and I manage the Clio blog, where we write about legal technology and the business of law for law firms of all types. JOSHUA: I'm Joshua Lenon. I'm the lawyer in residence at Clio. I provide legal scholarship and subject matter expertise to our teams throughout Clio, including Teresa's great blog. MARK: That is a good blog, I'll give you that. I enjoy it, and that's really what sort of prompted this podcast idea. It's been a little while, a week or so here, but you came up with the top ten legal predictions for the next 10 years, and that was just one of your blog posts. I thought that was very, very interesting. Normally when you see these predictions for what's going to happen, it's some lawyer sitting down or some tech person sitting down, but this really came out of the advocate community, as I understand it. Can you tell us a little bit about the Clio advocates community, talk about how the predictions were collected, and just tell us a little bit about the process? TERESA: Sure. We wanted to look at predictions for legal tech over the next 10 years, because it's actually Clio's 10th anniversary this year. 10 years ago, Jack and Ryan set out to build Clio and today Clio is the most powerful and popular cloud-based practice management platform available with 150,000 users in 90 countries. A big part of Clio's success has been the people who use Clio, so we thought it would be fitting to ask them what their predictions are for the next 10 years. As you mentioned, the post came out of a discussion in Clio's advocates community, which is the official Clio community where customers can go to discuss legal topics, share their expertise, get advice, and just engage with each other and build that community. Anyone who wants to join can learn more. You can join at advocates.com/join/advocates. There was discussion going on. We asked what their predictions were for the next 10 years, and we picked some of the most popular ones for this blog post. MARK: Nice. When you look at this, in terms of popular ... What surprised you the most about what you found? TERESA: There were a few things. The one thing that surprised me in the discussion was how many people predicted that paperless law firms were going to be a big thing in the next 10 years. MARK: Mm-hmm (affirmative). TERESA: Paperless is a big thing for a lot of law firms now, and I guess I was surprised to see so many law firms seeing that trend continuing and seeing law firms not just be mostly paperless but entirely paperless in the next 10 years. The second thing, along similar lines, is one person's prediction that traditional offices would disappear entirely, and that jurisdictional issues would go away, and lawyers would work across state lines with lawyers in other jurisdictions. Whether you got a mobile practice or you're working from home or you're using a shared workspace, that trend is only going to continue, which does make a little bit of sense. MARK: Yeah. TERESA: Office overhead is expensive, and then the third thing was Jordan Couch's prediction that lawyers will practice more like doctors, which was a really interesting way to frame it. In his view, artificial intelligence and automation will not threaten the jobs of lawyers by passing off more routine tasks to apps and services and other legal professionals. Lawyers, like surgeons, are going to be able to focus more on their craft and more on practicing law, which is what most of them want to do in the first place. If you've got a platform like Clio where you can log time with just a few clicks, communicate with your clients securely, and look at reports and data to see how your firm can improve, you're going to much better off than if you're trying to do those things all on your own without the right tool. MARK: It's interesting, and I agree with some of these predictions, just in terms of our own experience, and I do a lot of consulting over the years with apps and just in terms of visiting with firms around the country, but we are seeing more and more, in terms of just supporting what the advocates are saying, lawyers are moving into the, if you will, virtual space or virtual practice space. I see more telecommuting. I do see an increased pace of movement to the cloud, in terms of dropping off the paper, kind of, side here with all of that. It's been fun. It's interesting. I'm the risk guy, as you're well aware, and work with the malpractice insurance carrier. This is our world. Thinking about the advocate community, the kinds of things you're seeing and learning, what do you think we should be educating our policyholders about? Do you have any thoughts on that one? JOSHUA: I do think risk always is a factor when it comes to running any type of business, not just a law firm, but lawyers actually have a phenomenal resource that they're under-utilizing when it comes to managing, measuring, and preparing for risk, and that is their professional liability insurers. Too many lawyers don't innovate because they think their liability insurer will say no, when in fact, what liability insurers in my experience look for is a bit of collaboration, a little two-way communication, such that they can prepare alongside the law firms for these upcoming changes. Lawyers who want to innovate should, but they should be reaching out to their liability insurers and making sure that everybody's on the same page moving forward. In fact, they can probably get some great advice from their insurers on what's worked for other firms, and better approaches towards managing that risk if there is a factor in their expense. MARK: Again, I agree. I'm getting more and more these calls and emails coming in, talking about, "Is it safe to be in the cloud? I'd kind of like to go here, but we're afraid that you as our insurer will say, 'Oh, no. That's too risky.'" My response is, I don't think you guys can get to the cloud fast enough. Part of my challenge is, in trying to educate, say, when you think about moving to the cloud, we need to ... It's not the cloud, if you will, it's how we interact with the cloud, and so there's an opportunity for me to do some training and educating in terms of how to use it more responsibly. As I've looked at your site and we have a partnership here in terms of Clio and ALPS, and our insurance, do get some discounts in working with you folks, and so we're well aware of what you do. I've been very interested in your million dollar Clio development fund. Can you tell our listeners a bit more about what this fund is about? How do you envision this helping current and future Clio subscribers, and maybe tell us a little bit about what's already being funded? JOSHUA: Thanks, Mark. The developer fund is an experiment, but one that we're very excited about. We know that there's no one way to practice law. In fact, our advocates community, the feedback loops that we have via our support team, all tell us of lawyers having, sometimes, very highly specialized needs when it comes to their technology. While Clio is a great platform and highly customizable, it doesn't have, necessarily, every tool for every niche practice out there. We've been very fortunate to leverage cloud technology to create a platform where law firms can pick their favorite tools to meet their needs and specifications, and plug them into Clio, such that information syncs back and forth, it reduces transcription error, it increases responsiveness, and generally prevents a lot of the different types of complaints that we see coming towards lawyers when it comes to juggling a whole bunch of different data silos separately. When it comes to the developer fund, we know that it's very difficult for tools that target niche practices or niche functions within those practices, to really get up and running fast enough to be sustainable, so our developer fund is one way of us taking our success and investing in these third party tools, such that they're creating these highly specialized components that law firms can plug in. For example, if you are an immigration firm and really need a strong workflow for soliciting family information or business information and populating those government forms quickly on behalf of your clients, we have several tools that now plug into Clio and just do that for you. Clio will handle your time and billing, your secure communications with those clients, but this plugin tool will handle the forms for you, and between the two, you have an entire immigration practice basically in the palm of your hand on your mobile phone. If you are an IP attorney, you can plug in a tool like Alt Legal and that will handle your patent documenting for you, which is, again, a highly specialized workflow that Clio would love to build, but it only represents a portion of the 150,000 lawyers that we service, so we have to pick and choose, but we can devote things like our developer fund to get massive scale and massive functionality for lawyers around the world with a cooperative environment. MARK: What I hear, and what I really like about this, is, again, talking with our insureds over the past five to eight years as they look at this possibility of moving into the cloud. There've been all kinds of roadblocks that I hear, and what you're saying is, we're now in front of this. We are removing the roadblocks so that we can make the transition for this, particularly what I ... In terms of a lot of our insureds, the solo, small firm lawyers, make this transition to the cloud very smooth and make them far more productive. I just think this is a fantastic approach. Very exciting things happening. That's just fantastic. We're about running out of time, here. To wrap up, can I have each of you just share a final thought in terms of encouraging, why is it important for legal professionals to at least understand, if not move forward and embrace technology at the level of the like of which Clio offers, that kind of thing? What are your thoughts, final closing thought? TERESA: Sure. First, I would say that knowing the benefits and risks of technology is fast-becoming a necessity, not a nice-to-have. 31 states have already adopted comment eight on the ABA's model rule for professional conduct, rule 1.1, and that states that law firms must stay abreast of changes in the law and its practice, including the benefits and risks associated with technology. If you're not using technology to serve your clients better or if you're not aware of the risks that come with technology, it's really important to get educated. The Clio blog covers these topics regularly and you can subscribe to that at clio.com/blog. We put out a regular digest with articles. The second thing I would say is that technology can do a lot to help you practice more efficiently and help your clients better and focus more on the practice of the law. As Jordan said, lawyers who leverage technology are going to have more of an opportunity to focus on what they got into law to do in the first place. JOSHUA: I think that it's only going to get better from here. That's one of the exciting things about legal technology, is I think we're at an inflection point, where better and better tools will come into the hands of lawyers, giving better and better service to their clients, and getting in on the ground floor of that is a market opportunity for the law firms out there. MARK: Yeah, yeah. You know, may I just throw one other question at you, based on a conversation I had actually a little bit earlier this morning with another one of our insureds. I would just be curious in terms of the thoughts of either of you on this one. I'm going to restate it, but, this comes up quite a bit in my world. Mark, I'm thinking about looking at a cloud product, whether it's just file storage to a full practice management solution, such as Clio, but my concern is, if I start to let go of my data, I'm concerned about the security of all of that. I am now out of control. What would your response be to someone that says, "I'm just having a little trouble letting go." Can you speak to just data security overall in a solution like Clio versus just keeping everything local? JOSHUA: You got it. First of all, dollar per dollar, you get more security moving to a reputable cloud provider than you can ever provide inside of your office, things like 24/7 supervision of the technology are things that Clio provides that a lawyer just can't do in a smaller boutique firm. There's, unfortunately, just not enough dollars to cover that type of security coverage, so moving to the cloud is a great way to get more for your money, but you do have to pick a reputable provider. One way to find out if somebody's a reputable provider, is to look at their transparency when it comes to their security preparations, their willingness to answer your questions, and, quite frankly, their reputation amongst a lot of your peers. Clio, for example, has a public report on our status for how long we've been up, for the last ... I think it goes back an entire year now, the current report, and for the last three months, for example, I can tell you that Clio has been down a total of three minutes over those three months. That's the type of transparency we provide. We also provide third party security audits that are done on either and hourly or daily basis, depending on which of the three reports you look at. Those are available to the public as well, so you can always see how we're doing and whether or not we're leading the market in security, or lagging behind. Our goal is to always be leading. MARK: Yeah, yeah. JOSHUA: Yeah, and because of that, then you can take a look and see, not only are we being transparent, but then, what's our reputational effect? Our partnership with ALPS, for example, is one metric that a firm could look at to see that, not only are we being transparent, but we're also being vetted by people who are knowledgeable in the business, and that deem us to be a good bet. MARK: I appreciate you sharing that, Joshua. I do think it's important for our listeners to hear directly, if you will, from the horse's mouth, the answer to the question, so thank you for taking the time for that, and boy, I couldn't agree more with you. It's the same message I try to preach, but again, sometimes hearing it from the provider themselves, for themselves, is an important thing. That's about all the time we have today. Teresa, Joshua, thank you very much. It's been a pleasure, and for our listeners, I hope you found something of value and interest today out of this conversation. If, in future, you have any ideas for topics or questions or concerns you'd like to see addressed in one of these podcasts, please don't hesitate to reach out to me at mbass@alpsnet.com.
