#29: Affordable Legal Services with Tech in a WFH Chicago Law Office: Interview with Lawyer Alyease Jones

My next guest is Alyease Jones. Alyease is a Family Law Attorney in Chicago. I came across Elyease in a recent ABA article: Unbundled law firms find success offering virtual legal services. Alyease helps families who are in transition by offering equal access to justice while delivering quality, affordable family law services.

Join Alyease and I as we discuss using computers and technology to practice law in today's virtual "work-from-home" environment and how by combining better tech practices with the unbundling of services allows lawyers to pass on some savings to their clients. Our three questions are: 1. What three pieces of technology have made the transition from a brick and mortar office to a virtual office easy for you? 2 What three pieces of software or technology have helped you unbundle your services? 3. What are three pieces of technology do you use with your clients, so they don't feel distant from their attorney?

Enjoy!

Previous TSL.P Podcast Guest Meghan Zavieh Commentary on Tech Competency for Lawyers

Meghan, a previous TSL.P Podcast Guest, released a commentary on Technical Competency for Lawyers - What does it mean? Its a great reminder for the basics all lawyers need to understand regarding the use of technology in the office (whether “brick & mortar”, at your home office or on the road). It also perfectly corresponds with the release of her new book, The Modern Lawyer: Ethics and Technology in an Evolving World, earlier this year.

This book is a good addition to your library whether you are a newbie to tech or an experienced pro!

Happy Lawyering!
