While the holiday season is over, its memory lingers, prompting a look back on the technologies law firms have on their lists, be it under the ‘naughty’ or ‘nice’ column. This subject was recently interrogated on the Non-Eventcast, where a non-lawyer service business owner shared insights into the tech that has proven useful in his work (Above the Law).
The guest, Nick Briscoe, founder of the Briscoe Economics Group, spoke about his career as an economist and detailed his interaction with law firms. Briscoe highlighted the use of some conventional tools like Excel and more specialized software like law practice management systems that work effectively for his business operations.
In addition, he shared his experiences with adopting AI not only in his business operations but also in surprising and innovative ways such as generating unique AI images to make his presentations more memorable. Nick also discussed how he utilizes AI tool ChatGPT for coding software and elaborated on the opportunities generative AI tools present, even for those without coding experience.
The host of Non-Eventcast, Jared Correia, encouraged law professionals to check their tech list against what was discussed to get a sense of whether their current tech stack is keeping up with industry trends and innovations.
