I respectfully dissent: Law firm partner vs. the Associate tasked with doing the work.

Finding the #legal path that you enjoy is the most important. But we should always be asking ourselves what aspects of any practice of law causes us discomfort. And then the #legalcommunity should try to fix it. Every one of us deserves a #legal career that we enjoy. #lawtwitter

This is one of the biggest barriers to large scale innovation in computational law. It’s too expensive to acquire sufficient data. Making files free to use would improve #a2j #legalinnovation and #makelawbetter besides just being fundamentally fairer. #lawtwitter

General counsel. #lawtwitter

Lawyers need to embrace technology across the board, including machine learning. It won’t “steal our jobs” but simply “make us better.” #lawtwitter

We need more positivity spread into the ether.

At a former biglaw gig, the running cringe-worth joke about a partner's dedication to the firm was about him leaving the hospital as soon as his wife gave birth to bill more hours. I'm sure that's actually a pretty mellow anecdote but shameful nonetheless. #lawtwitter

4yo sees mom and dad snuggling: Can I enjoin you? Me: What irreparable harm will you suffer if you can’t? 4yo: Uhhh, I love you? 🤷🏼‍♂️ #lawtwitter

I stepped foot inside a building for a hearing for the first time for anything since Feb. 2020. It at once felt satisfying and antiquated. Still processing. #lawtwitter

If a counterpart ever busts out “I will cost you several hundred thousand dollars and millions of hours of sleep over my life, c’mon, this is one small inconvenience” I will be super impressed.”

When technology and the law come together 💯💯💯 #lawtwitter

This is a great thought experiment. But you could also substitute Amazon with many other innovative companies and #legal would be doing better. Our competition isn’t necessarily each other but non-legal service providers with which our clients interact daily. #lawtwitter

That’s cool and all, but have you ever seen a lawyer manually crack the formatting on a 20-year-old form Word document? #lawtwitter

Should the purpose of #lawschool be to teach the law and build the analytical mindset only? Or prepare #lawstudent for holistic experience of practice? How to handle when discriminated against? How to build a practice? Personal finance (loan repayment)? Staying well (mind/body)?

Law school is nothing if not a scoreboard, but this is A+ advice right here. Find and focus on the thing(s) you love, and don't keep up with the Joneses. #lawtwitter

This is absolutely true and maybe one reason (among many) that lawyers resist it. The breadth and depth of legal tech could seem daunting. Like, I worked with an attorney who did closing calculations on a calculator and was confused when I explained Excel formulas. #lawtwitter

Play an infinite game, not a zero-sum one. - Share credit with colleagues - Celebrate other people's wins - Bring positive energy to interactions - Believe that opportunity is abundant - Be open to new ideas and approaches - Look for constructive lessons in failure

I'm stilling trying to figure out where Lex Loci Delicti fits in this world.
