Chapter 36 Leveraging the Net- The Internet transforms industries, and the legal profession is no exception. Lawyers deal with information and communication in a major way, and those who understand how to use the Internet can gain significant competitive advantages.
This chapter explores how the Internet:
Helps a lawyer operate more efficiently, including reducing overhead
Brings a lawyer's skills to the attention of potential new clients
Makes a lawyer more attractive to clients by enabling new conveniences and a higher quality of service
Author Jerry Lawson briefly discusses security issues and solutions, e-mail efficiency, research on the Web, and blogs, and then makes recommendations on how to best take advantage of Internet technology.
