Compelling insights about cloud computing, data backups, e-discovery, mobile computing, security, and social media highlight the American Bar Association’s 2012 Legal Technology Survey.

The survey received 5,076 responses from attorneys at outfits of various sizes, from solo shops to mega-firms. It covered six volumes released in stages from May to July: Technology Basics, Law Office Technology, Litigation/Courtroom Technology, Web/Communication Technology, Online Research, and Mobile Lawyers. Results are divided by firm size: Solo, 2-9, 10-49, 50-99, 100-499, and 500-plus. Chicago-based ABA editor Joshua Poje led the project.
