It’s been a tough year (to say the least).
Along with living through a pandemic, you may have dealt with different challenges – from working remotely, to distance learning, to worrying about loved ones. And perhaps more than anything, you’ve had to accept that there are more unknowns now than ever.
Your clients are dealing with the same stressors. The last thing they need right now is an unexpected legal issue. But when lightning strikes – and they go from needing legal documents drafted on real estate agreements, to needing information on foreclosure and bankruptcy – they’re so grateful they have you. They know you, they trust you, they need your help.
This can add more to your already full plate as clients may be coming to you with legal issues that aren’t in your everyday wheelhouse. How can you find time in your over-packed schedule to get up to speed in an unfamiliar practice area?
Something’s got to give. Everyone needs help – yourself included. How do you ensure you’re getting the help you need while also being there for your clients?
Today’s legal research tools can relieve the pressure
Where to begin? That’s always the daunting question at the start of learning a new practice area. Not long ago, you were able to walk down the hall and tap into a colleague’s knowledge. But chances are, remote working has made that accessibility a little hard to come by these days.
Today, firms have adopted legal technology to help meet some of these new challenges. Increasingly, attorneys turn to their legal research tools. And ensuring you have the right tools is key to getting the help both you and your clients need. After all, you wouldn’t cut your lawn with a pair of kitchen shears.
