At the recent Clio Cloud Conference in Austin, Texas, Clio released its ninth annual Legal Trends Report, a report that uses both survey responses and anonymized data from Clio users to paint a picture of key trends in law practice and legal technology. This year's report has some intriguing findings on lawyers' adoption of AI and the types of tasks within a law office that could be automated using AI.The survey also looks at trends in hourly and flat fee billing, and includes the results of a “secret shopper” study of lawyers' responses (or, more accurately, non-responses) to inquiries from potential clients. To discuss all of this and more, Joshua Lenon, Clio's lawyer in residence and one of the principal authors of the report, sat down live with LawNext host Bob Ambrogi during the conference. Here is their conversation.  Note that we have already posted two other LawNExt episodes recorded live at ClioCon, one with Clio's founder and CEO Jack Newton, and another with what we called the “Clio Power Trio” of Clio's COO Ronnie Gurion, CFO Curt Sigfstead, and board member and investor Mark Britton.    Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

RockerMike and Rob Presents: The Amoeba Teen Amoeba Teen were founded by critically acclaimed songwriting team of Mark Britton and Mike Turner. Armed with a four-track tape recorder and junk shop guitars, the pair began writing together back in the dying embers of the last century. Classic guitar pop disciples, Amoeba Teen, regenerate the genre of melodic songwriting, lush harmonies and chiming guitars. Early success stalled, but the attention of radio and music journalists and the support from a core of determined fans who sought Amoeba Teen out one by one, convinced the band to push on with refining their craft.  Likened to the titans of guitar power pop, the West Midlands' natives shun such comparisons, preferring to reinterpret the genre by incorporating influences from the world of low-fi post-punk, alternative rock and alt-country. In short, Amoeba Teen is the sound of master craftsmen decoding and rebuilding classic guitar pop on their own terms, in their own time. https://www.amoebateen.com/ https://bigstirrecords.com/amoeba-teen#:~:text=Amoeba%20Teen%20were%20founded%20by,embers%20of%20the%20last%20century. https://m.facebook.com/amoebateen https://www.instagram.com/amoebateen/?hl=en https://m.soundcloud.com/amoebateen https://mobile.twitter.com/amoebateen Park Dental Care 12419 101st Ave South Richmond Hill Queens (718) 847-3800 https://www.718DENTISTS.com Please follow us on Youtube,Facebook,Instagram,Twitter,Patreon and at www.gettinglumpedup.com https://linktr.ee/RobRossi Get your T-shirt at https://www.prowrestlingtees.com/gettinglumpedup And https://www.bonfire.com/store/getting-lumped-up/ Subscribe to the channel and hit the like button This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rob-rossi/support https://www.patreon.com/Gettinglumpedup #musicvideo #musicstudio #musiclover #musiclife #musicindustry #musiclovers #musiccover #musician #musicproducer #musicproduction #musicians #musicislife #musicartist #musicphotography #musicvideos #Music #Punk #drummer #Guitar @spotify @Apple @Pandera @Amoeba Teen @AmoebaTeen #AmoebaTeen @BIGSTIRRECORDS #BIGSTIRRECORDS @twitter @Instagram --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rob-rossi/support

Learning — and Lessons Learned — About Bowhunting for Kamloops Mule Deer

Hunting & Fishing British Columbia

Welcome to Episode 29 of The Outdoor Narrative. I'm Robert Koopmans and every week I talk with interesting people about fishing, hunting and other wild pursuits in British Columbia. This week, I talked with a variety of people about hunting with a bow and becoming a bowhunter. This episode is about learning and lessons learned — including hard, humbling lessons that you can only get in the field.I bought a bow when I was 17 years old. Living in Ontario, I was determined to hunt deer with it, and I practiced hard. I got to be pretty good with it, but I never did make it out deer hunting. Not long after, I graduated high school and moved to B.C., to go to school and start working. The bow went into storage and when the time came again that I wanted to hunt, I bought a rifle, because the guy who was teaching me about B.C. deer hunted with a rifle.  It is what I have done for the last 30 years. About a month ago, a fully loaded bowhunting package passed into my hands, completely set up and ready to shoot. That desire to try bowhunting flashed back up and I saw the possibility of a check box on a bucket-list item. All that was left to do was determine whether I could fire up muscle memory from 30 years ago in time for the September 1 deer archery season in my area. I started by reaching out to the Kamloops Target Sports Association. The club has an active and talented group of archers. Mark Britton is one of them. He and his wife Katie are both members of the Canadian National Archery Team, and recently competed at the international 3D archery championships in Quebec. I spoke with Mark at one of the club's 3D archery shoots …. After I chatted with Mark, I met up with Al Campsall, who is another of the club's talented archers. He's been shooting bows and hunting with them for decades, and just missed a spot on the Canadian national archery team this year. He agreed to watch me shoot, and offered up several critical tips to set me on a better path … The next day, after my session with Al, I went back to the range and walked through the 3D archery course the club had set up in the sagebrush hills just behind the club's shooting range. It was a great experience, wandering through the draws and gullies in search of the 3D deer, bears cougars, elk and moose the club had staked out. It was as realistic a hunting experience as you can create on a range. And with the exception of one shot on a rubber deer at 45 yards, I stuck my arrows into all the right places. All that was left to do was go hunting. One week later, I met up with Brian Chan. Most people know Brian through fly-fishing. I learned this past summer he is also an avid bow hunter, having picked up the sport a few years ago. We sat down to review the first five days of the season, and what we both learned …. Another massive thunderstorm passed through our area the evening after Brian and I talked, stealing one of our hunts. I hunted out the last two days, but it became apparent the best of that early season hunting was done. My first archery season ended September 9, yesterday, with no meat in the freezer. I had two good chances though, so only myself to blame. Regardless, it was an amazing week of hunting, one that has changed how I view hunting. I know I won't put down my rifle for good, but there's a pretty good chance now I'm goi ng to take it out a lot less. As Canadian philosopher Marshall McLuhan once said, “The medium is the message.” After an intense week chasing deer with a bow, I can tell you that bowhunting's message feels a lot deeper. There's a lot there to explore and I plan to spend a great deal more time honing skills and getting ready for the next opportunity, whenever that might be…

Artificial intelligence and the rise of robot lawyers are interesting topics to talk about. But they're not helpful if you are looking for ways to improve your practice. Trying to "innovate" for the sake of innovation is dangerous at worst. And at best it's a waste of time. You should focus on the nuts and bolts of managing your practice better. Using systems is crucial. After you've created good systems, and documented them, then you can focus on automation and outsourcing. You need to manage your practice in a sensible, methodical way. When it comes to marketing, focus on your strength which is providing personal service to people that interact with you in a way that causes them to like you and trust you. Don't try to compete with commoditized legal services like Legal Zoom or Avvo. Be the down-to-earth, sincere caring lawyer that your clients want you to be. And, if you're going to use technology like a website to market your practice, then use it in a way that sends the right message to the kinds of people you want as clients.
