LawTech 2009: Marketing, Management and Technology Solutions for Your Firm - February 20, 2009 in Nashville

The Tennessee Bar Association's Law Office Technology and Management Section has put together a great program this year for the annual LawTech event which will take place at the Doubletree Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee on February 20, 2009. The list of nationally know speakers is great.

Here is a summary of the 7 hour CLE program from the TBA's website.

The TBA's Annual Law Tech seminar is back and better than ever. In the morning, you will learn about legal technology trends for 2009 and how to handle ethical dilemmas created by technology in this "age of Myspace.com and micro-recorders." Then, Rick Borstein, author of the well known blog, "Acrobat for Legal Professionals," will discuss how Adobe Acrobat can be used to improve your practice. In the afternoon, PC attorneys from small to mid-sized firms will enjoy a panel discussion regarding various issues such as mobile security, data backup, and disaster planning. Mac attorneys, on the other hand, will be glad to know that Ben Stevens, publisher of the well known practice management blog, The Mac Lawyer,** has agreed to return to lead a panel discussion on Macs for Lawyers. Last but not least, Tom Mighell, co-author of The Lawyer's Guide to Collaboration Tools and Technologies: Smart Ways to Work Together and "Inter Alia,"** a blog dedicated to legal technology, will discuss how to use standard technology and the latest "Web 2.0" resources to work more effectively on projects with colleagues, clients, co-counsel and, yes, even opposing counsel.

Lunch is included with the program, and door prizes will be awarded at the conclusion of the seminar.

** The Mac Lawyer and Inter Alia were both included in the 2008 ABA Journal Blawg 100 which lists the "100 best Web sites by lawyers, for lawyers, as chosen by theeditors of the ABA Journal."

Great news. Sorry I can't be there.

I was recently at a Casemap conference. You should have seen it. A room full of Dells and in the middle, a single, solitary, glowing Apple logo.

Good luck!
