Does your business lawyer move at the speed of your business?

In just the past few years the technologies that businesses regularly use has dramatically expanded as have the technologies available to lawyers.  Many years ago I had a case against an older and very experienced attorney.  He claimed that his client didn’t have to pay my client because of a certain case.  Unfortunately for him, what he “knew” had changed and the case on which he was relying had been overruled.  I learned that fact in a few seconds using electronic research while he was still looking things up the old way in actual books.  I hadn’t seen those books since the old law library days in law school and didn’t even know were still printed!

In keeping with the standards of professionalism that all lawyers should follow, I politely and privately informed my opponent of the change and he curiously inquired how I found that out.  When I told him it was through electronic research he sheepishly confessed that not only did he not know how to do that, but he didn’t even know how to use e-mail!  That experience stuck with me.  It forces me to stay on the cutting edge of technology to provide the best possible service to businesses and their owners and to keep up with the speed of their business.

Simple technologies available to attorneys now, such as Skype, e-mail, electronic discovery software, and electronic research allow them to operate at your speed and to not slow you down.  So, is your business lawyer moving at the speed of your business?
