Virtual LegalTech

Want to learn about the latest legal technology trends, issues, products, and services -- and earn CLE credit in the process? This Thursday (March 18) you can attend Virtual LegalTech, without all those annoying TSA security checkpoints, horrible coach seats, or worrying about the East Coast's eternal winter. And the best news: It's all free.
   Virtual LegalTech is our online complement to our live LegalTech shows in New York and Los Angeles. From the comfort of your office or home, you can enjoy a full day of free live webcasts and CLE-accredited seminars. Among the topics that are eligible for the grail of continuing legal education credits are panels on Amending the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; Use of E-Discovery Technology in Federal Court: A Case Study; Developing a Comprehensive and Legally-Sound Social Media Policy; and Outlook Integration: The Lawyer's Outlook.
  

Among the faculty are Law Technology News Editorial Advisory Board members Patrick Oot (E-Discovery Institute), and consultants George Socha and Craig Ball, who writes LTN's "Ball in Your Court" column.
   Kevin Iredell and Jennifer Blessman, of ALM's Legal Intelligence division, will also present a special plenary session at 4 p.m., discussing The American Lawyer's 2009 Law Firm Outsourcing Practices Survey.
   The interactive environment enables participants to talk with vendors, view product demonstrations, and network with peers.

   A virtual exhibit hall will also provide the opportunity to see new products and services from a wide variety of vendors, including Thomson Reuters Legal, IBM, StoredIQ, to name just a few. (And you can always count on something wacky from Larry Port and the gang at Rocket Matter.)
   Trapped in meetings all day Thursday? No worries -- you can visit the show 365/7/24 after its Thursday live launch! Check it all out at www.virtuallegaltechshow.com.
