Inertia can be toxic to a law practice. Sometimes, lawyers are content to manage their practices as they always have, assuming that the old ways always work the best. However, state bars are beginning to hold attorneys accountable, imploring bar members to become more fluent or capable in recent technological aspects of the practice of law, such as cybersecurity or cloud computing.

Through the use of the internet and modern technology, attorneys can reach more people, accomplish more tasks and effectively monitor more matters than ever before. As the modern law practice has emerged, attorneys have seen the risks and frequency of legal malpractice claims change as they take full advantage of systems and solutions that actually reduce those risks.
