Artificial Intelligence continues to be a big unknown in the legal space.  It holds tremendous promise for streamlining the delivery of legal services and is already being deployed to expedite discovery, to help draft contracts, to assist with client intake, and to streamline many other functions that once required a lot more human labor.  AI is now being used by some lawyers to help assess the strength of their cases, to expedite legal research, and to draft pleadings. I know that I myself am using ChatGPT to help me prepare for presentations, craft social media posts, and to get quickly up to speed on an array of subjects that are of interest to my clients.  At the same time, the use of AI raises legitimate ethical concerns. It also raises concerns about the need for so many lawyers.  But according to my guest, Hamid Kohan, AI won't replace lawyers.  It will replace lawyers and other professionals who don't use AI. Hamid Kohan is a serial entrepreneur, public speaker, and author of the book How to Scale Your Stupid AI Law Firm. Hamid started his career in silicon valley where he served as Director of Business Development of Sun Microsystems, working alongside Eric Schmidt who is today the CEO of Google and Carol Bartz  the CEO of Yahoo. More recently, Hamid saw an opportunity to bring his expertise in technology and business development to the legal world, and he founded Legal Soft Inc. in 2016. In this episode, Hamid will answer some questions about where we are in 2023 with the use of AI in the practice of law.

There are many efforts underway around the country to help lawyers address stress in the practice of law. Several years ago, the Report of the Task Force on Lawyer Well-Being was issued by the American Bar Association, Conference of Chief Judges, and other legal organizations.  It called well-being an essential element of a lawyer's duty of competence. In Massachusetts, there is an organization called Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers which helps attorneys deal with substance abuse and some of the underlying causes of attorney anxiety and depression and there are similar organizations in many states. In January of 2020, The Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts created a Standing Committee on Lawyer Well-Being. The Standing Committee is charged with planning and overseeing efforts to enhance the well-being of lawyers, judges and law students in the Commonwealth and is doing a great job of educating these different constituencies. As summer is coming to a close and the pandemic rages on, I thought this was a good time to revisit the subject of attorney well-being.  And if you happen to be Jewish like me, this is generally a great time for self-reflection and thinking about the changes you want to make in your life.  So with the start of the New Year, Jewish or not, I was pleased to welcome Shailini George, a professor at Suffolk University School of Law. Shailini is someone who has thought a lot about the subject of attorney well-being and just published a book called The Law Student's Guide to Doing Well and Being Well.  She was also co-author of Mindful Lawyering: The Key to Creative Problem Solving.  Shailini teaches legal writing  at Suffolk and focuses her scholarship on lawyer well-being, mindfulness, and the cognitive science of learning.  In this episode, we talk stress in the practice of law and about what Shailini calls distraction addiction.  She offers strategies for addressing stress and distraction in order to become a more productive, effective and happier lawyer.   Other Resources Episode 33-Mindfulness, Biofeedback, and the Practice of Law Episode 37-Managing Anxiety in a Time of Crisis Ten Percent Happier (Dan Harris, an ABC News personality, brings mindfulness to skeptics with his book, app and podcast; tons of content and a great place to start for a modest annual fee--look for discounts)

Today we will be talking all about familiarity bias. Sometimes on the show, I share concepts with you that are a bit foreign. Like one of my all-time favorites in hyperbolic time discounting or even something like “choice architecture” which can sound a little intimidating. Others are like the topic of today’s show. Familiarity bias is less scary because...it’s familiar! It’s a term that is a bit like a warm hug, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t things for you to learn. This is a bias that can serve you well in life and business but it also often steers people wrong. So it is important to know how it works, and what to be on the lookout for on both the positive and negative sides. Show Notes: [00:07] Today’s behavioral economics foundations episode is about familiarity bias. [02:30] The subconscious brain makes decisions using rules of thumb based on predictability. It likes to know what is coming next so it can keep the reins which means it has a strong bias toward things it is familiar with. [04:03] What matters is knowing that the more people become familiar with things, the more likely they are to prefer them; to have a bias toward them. [04:22] Studies have shown that our bias toward the familiar can make it so we make worse bets, that we invest in the wrong things, that we will be more likely to hold out in jobs that we have outgrown or keep pouring money into projects we should have let go of.  [05:49] That new job opportunity or relationship or project or apartment or whatever else is presenting itself will probably be scary at first, but that doesn’t mean it is bad or wrong. Embrace the feeling and jump in knowing that soon it will be like that song you hated the first time you heard it. [07:54] Eventually, and much faster than you think, this will become familiar—the new normal. You will adjust. Look at how so many people adjusted to working from home or wearing masks during the pandemic. [09:07] Is there a “way you’ve always done things” that feels like you can’t change it but might just be familiarity bias?  [09:48] Awareness of familiarity bias can help you ask that question when you feel hesitant to take a step in a new direction. [11:59] Don’t be afraid to reuse an ad a few times, people might like it more as they continue to see it. [13:47] You don’t have to constantly feel the pressure to reinvent the wheel.  If something worked, keep doing it! Maybe you want to do a slight tweak to see if you can improve on a good thing, but if it ain’t broke, don’t throw it out and start on something new.  [15:43] It’s ok to prioritize an important project now and let something else that is doing fine sit on the shelf a little longer. It may be becoming familiar and making your customers like it (and you) even more with time. [16:58] Some things are not going to benefit you if you change them up. They could actually be a detriment.   [17:40] When you are feeling like you’ve done something a few times so people must be getting bored with it and they’ll leave if you don’t do something new and fresh, remind your conscious brain that people like familiarity!   [18:09] If you have anyone, customers or team members (or family members!) who hate the idea of a change and fight or resist at first, give it a little time to let familiarity bias set in. [19:21] What do you have in your business that is best to keep familiar for your customers?

Lateral partner movement is alive and well in the practice of law.  While partners and practice groups were changing firms with increasing frequency in the past decade, the pandemic has not really slowed down the process. There are many reasons why law firm partners seek out greener pastures. In this episode, my guest Susan Mendelsohn, talks about some of those reasons.  But what makes a lateral move a success?  Why do some partners make a lateral move and stay for years while others quickly discover that another lateral move may be in the offing. Susan Mendelsohn has a lot to say on the subject. Susan Mendelsohn has been recruiting in the legal space for over 20 years. While she is based in Chicago, she serves clients throughout the United States and not only does recruiting, but like me, Susan also spends a portion of her time on coaching.

Hello everyone and welcome to episode 42, where Friday the 13th falls on a Wednesday this month. This 13th of November in the year of our Lord, 2019. I hope you’re not superstitious; instead, this is a month to be most thankful. Later this month, at Thanksgiving dinner, like a lot of families, we go around the table and everyone shares what they have been thankful for this year. The expressions of gratitude are usually the same: for family, good health, prayers that have been answered, and maybe one or two events from the past year. It’s always good to re-affirm blessings like these. They’re the good things of life that deserve to be acknowledged. But what about the not-so-good things? Is it possible to be grateful for them? I think there is. I think we can find a measure of gratitude in our relationship with the annoyances and irritations of life that can actually bring us joy. Let me explain. My current ;ist of irritations: Dental bill for Janet’s root canal Our grandfather clock doesn’t strike 2 anymore Crack in our driveway The “A” on my computer keyboard. Where the joy is to be found in these irritations: There is joy in realizing that no one is out to get me at the dental office or the insurance company. That I’m not a victim. Most people are trying. They may be in a dead-end job they don’t like for no other reason than to support their family. I’ve had a job or two like that in my life. So I can relate. If I want to. There is joy in appreciating that I’m not in control nearly as much as I think I am. These annoyances remind me I need Jesus. They remind me to focus on the important stuff. There is joy in being reminded that all these irritations of life are a result of the Fall. That we live in a fallen world, that was never the way God intended our life to be. But it’s not going to be like this forever. There is joy found in knowing God understands what we’re going through, and as it says of Him in Ephesians 1:10, “At the right time God will bring everything together under the authority of Christ - everything in heaven and and on earth.” There is joy in knowing that all the irritations of life will one day cease. When my life ends here on earth, and my new one starts in heaven , there will be no more annoyances, no more mail from the the dental clinic about an overdue bill. Revelation 21 talks about the new heaven and the new earth that awaits us as follower of Jesus. It’s where there will be no more death, or sorrow, or pain. All these things will be gone forever. Here’s what I learned today. More importantly, I’d appreciate reading YOUR takeaways from today’s program in the “Leave a Reply” box at the bottom of the show notes. Or you can send them in an email to me. But for now, here’s what I learned: Don’t let annoyances rob us of the joy of being fully present in the here and now Adjust our expectations. There is something wrong with EVERYTHING. Anticipate and appreciate what heaven will be like, where there will never be any any problems. Where nothing is broken. In the light of eternity, all problems and irritations are temporary. It’s part of having a theology of suffering. We will rarely be thankful for the irritation when it first happens. But give it some time to marinate in our heart, and in time, the gratitude, and even joy, will emerge. Before I close, here’s the he main take-away from today’s episode, our show in a sentence The irritations of life, if we let them, can drive us to gratitude to Jesus for calming our hearts when we put these annoyances of life in proper perspective, knowing that in light of eternity, they are only temporary. Here’s what we can do in response to today’s show A few things come to mind: Stare our pet peeves in the face, with a big smile on our face, and repeat, “this too will pass." Make a list of all the things that bother us, and in prayer, ask the Lord to give us an eternal perspective about them Anticipate things will go wrong. Don’t be surprised. Find the humor.

How many times have you thought, “I’m too busy to figure out a better way to do X” or “I’ll improve this process as soon as things settle down.” The reality is that things never really settle down and yet, if we don’t periodically pause to reflect and improve our processes, we’ll soon discover they’ve eroded into overly complicated, burdensome ways of working. This week, I walk through a real-life example of a process redesign session I led with one of my team coaching clients. It was an incredibly enlightening session that had them questioning the root of their activities, pushing back on previous assumptions, and designing completely new ways of working.

If you don’t periodically pause and reflect on your processes, they will slowly begin to burden you. In just a few hours, your team can identify critical pain points in their current ways of working and generate solutions to reduce or eliminate those pains. Some solutions may have a high implementation cost such as a new technology platform while others may be low cost such as a shared template or checklist. When looking for opportunities to save time, consider what areas of work take up the most time already. It’s typically easier to save an hour when it’s a 10-hour activity compared to a 2-hour activity. Learn from others: how were these activities done at other places you worked?

Session 104 What a great two-year journey it has been for the Medical School HQ Podcast. Yup! This 104th episode actually marks the second year anniversary of our podcast. Four episodes ago we played the 100th podcast, where we featured stories from our listeners. Today, let this episode be our opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude for what amazing journey it has been for us as physicians as well as being able to help medical students walk through their medical school journey. Sure there are challenges and the future may seem bleak, but there is always light at the very end of the tunnel so let’s continue to hold on to each other. There is so much negativity in the physician world today where physicians would discourage students to go to medical school and that’s sad. We started this podcast with the aim to show you everything you need to know about getting to medical school: all the triumphs, struggles, and what not. And as long as you’re doing it for the right reasons? It should all be worth it! At at that time during the initial podcast, our website had over 50,000 page views. Fastforward to today, we’re over 600,000 page views and over 200,000 podcast downloads. Wow! We continue to grow everyday and that’s because of you listening right now who still continue to give us feedback . We have over 220 5-star ratings in iTunes. For all of you guys taking the time to go to medicalschoolhq.net/itunes, giving us reviews and sharing us to your friends, THANK YOU! We wouldn’t have grown as big as we are today without your help. So in this episode, we are talking about the things we are thankful for in general. Allison: Given the opportunity everyday that she can make a difference, no matter how small it is, still it’s a difference! The feeling of a patient telling you that you have helped them improve their quality of life. When you’re seeing people who are dying and you’re trying to help the family ease through the suffering - it’s rewarding. Working with a team especially in an inpatient setting The way medical teaching structure works Ryan: His ability to reassure patients that everything’s going to be okay is a huge part of healing in of itself. Being in a room, behind closed doors, and be one-on-one with a patient Their podcast helping students get to medical school If you just started listening to this podcast, go back to start and listen to Episode 1. We guarantee that the information you will get from the podcast will help you get into medical school. And congratulations to all the listeners who have made it to medical school and who have take the time to let us know how we have helped them in their journey. We are so honored to have been a part of your journey and thank you for letting us know. Some pieces of advice for premed students: Yes, you can be a physician and still be thankful for being a physician. On a sad note, there was an article written on medical students who committed suicide. It’s not an easy road. But hold fiercely your dreams and desire to do this because it is worth it! Do it for the right reasons. Get informed. It’s not all rainbows and sunshine. There are challenges definitely! But it’s all worth it if you do it for the right reasons. Let’s continue to be supportive of one another. There are days you feel like quitting, so let’s all support each other. It’s collaboration that’s going to make us better. Join the Academy, we’ve got 5 members who already got to medical school and that makes us proud to be able to help them in some ways. We will give you the support that you need. We will review your personal statements. We do mock reviews. We’ll meet once a month for office hours. And we would be happy if you too could jump on board and take us along your medical school journey.
