Mission:
This committee’s mission
is to collect data on practice methods as they are affected
by technology and as they affect the economics of practice.
Its further mission is to study the data, illustrate future
trends and illustrate Section member opportunities to
improve the delivery of legal services in a way that will
improve the quality of the legal product, make a positive
impact on the enjoyment of law practice, and improve Section
member effectiveness in attracting clients to their law
practices. The committee circulates its work product through
ABA publications, the Section’s Web site and through
programming at ABA meetings.
