Law practice management in the 2010s won't be anything like the 1990s. The global practice. Large firms are opening offices throughout the world to follow the internationalization of capital, clients and cultures. Others ask why they need the real estate. The Internet allows a lawyer in Tucumcari, New Mexico, to practice in Bali.
Instantaneous communication powers a practice, with scant regard for time or place.
Redefining the law firm. A move past hourly billing significantly will challenge the values and traditional hierarchies of the law firm. The Internet upends every assumption. A global communication web reaches every village and office. An explosion of growth.
