Overview

An all-new 2023 edition of our annual look at some of the biggest new trends in the law & law practice!  Presented in a fast-paced manner, with an emphasis on "what you need to know."  

Topics to be discussed include:

• The Future of Virtual Online Court Hearings (even post-COVID)
• New Sources of Competition for Private Law Firms
• The Sudden Rise of the "Paralegal Practitioner"
• Emerging New Law on Electronic Wills
• The Promise & Peril of Artificial Intelligence in Law Practice
• Major Changes in Family Law (including the "Grey Divorce" Phenomenon; An Explosion in Prenuptial Agreements; and No-Fault Divorce Under Threat)
• New Frontiers in Business Law (including new Article 12 of UCC)
• The Impact of the New Generation Gap on Law Firm Management
• The Recoverability of Most Ephemeral Financial Data
• The Ethics of the Expanding Technology Gap among Practicing Lawyers

Please note:  This In-Person course will include much of the same material as our several of our new On-Demand online courses, including "Five Trending Topics Every Lawyer Should Know About;" "Prenuptial Agreements;" "The New Law of Paralegals & Notaries;" and "The New Role of Artificial Intelligence in Law Practice."   Therefore, if you plan to attend the In-Person seminar in Jackson on July 25, 2023, you should not also purchase any of the aforementioned On-Demand online courses.  (If you're buying an On-Demand bundle -- in addition to the July 25th In-Person course -- then check to see if any of these listed On-Demand courses are included in that bundle.  If so, just call us at 1-800-874-8556, and we can substitute different courses in your On-Demand bundle!)
