Computers and Law, the website of the Society for Computers & Law, has kindly republished an article which I wrote following LegalTech 2010.

They have merged that article with the predictions which I made for the SCL at the turn of the year and called the article Trends: e-Disclosure and Legal Practice in the Recovery Position. The fact that the original springboard was a US event did not diminish the article’s relevance to the UK or, indeed, to any other jurisdiction which requires the discovery of documents for litigation. The addition of my 2010 e-disclosure predictions emphasises the UK elements.

The SCL’s choice of words in the title are aptly chosen: the words the recovery position accurately reflects my positive view of likely developments, and the reference to legal practice makes it clear that this is not just a subject for the hands-on litigators, but also for those responsible for developing new business and managing the work when it comes in.
