Owning Your Online Presence

"What if someone says something negative about me online?" This is probably the most common question lawyers ask me. The sad truth is that many lawyers have nothing to worry about. They aren't online. They have no online presence. If your reputation is what people say about you within your community, your online presence is what everything posted about you on Google, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn or anywhere else online adds up to. Managing this material may seem overwhelming, but there is a simple place to start: LinkedIn. [MORE]

LegalTech Trek: 88 Days Left

The information from LegalTech New York will not grow stale as legal technology continues to move ahead to LegalTech West Coast 2013 at the Westin Bonaventure in Los Angeles from May 21 to 22. With only 88 days left before the next show, LTN's Technology Editor Sean Doherty is going to be hard-pressed in this new column, "LegalTech Trek," to transmit all the news and information he received in New York last January.

Tech Circuit: LegalTech New York Edition, Take Two

In Tech Circuit, LegalTech New York (Part I), we lamented about how difficult it was to pick among the many options at the legal technology show, be it seminars, keynotes, parties, plenary sessions, demonstrations, booths, or networking.

It's just so hard to choose among so many compelling choices — keynotes, seminars, plenary sessions, exhibits, briefings, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, receptions, awards.
