While
it
may
not
be
the
entire
recipe
for
running
a
successful
law
firm
—
using
modern
technology
is
certainly
a
key
ingredient.
Without
using
the
right
technology
in
a
law
firm,
it’s
like
trying
to
bake
bread
without
flour,
or
attempting
to
make
bricks
without
straw.
Now,
when
you
do
have
the
correct
mix
of
legaltech,
your
law
practice
becomes
an
elegant
dish.
So
let’s
stop
with
the
food
analogies
—
because
I’m
getting
hungry
—
and
find
out
how.
In
order
to
drill
down
on
why
and
how
technology
can
help
you
build
your
best
law
firm,
we
invited
both
CEO
TJ
Fraser
and
COO
Olivia
Mockel,
from
ZenCase,
onto
the
Non-Eventcast,
to
explore
the
studio
space.
TJ
begins
by
discussing
how
he
came
up
with
the
idea
for
ZenCase
.
.
.
in
a
hot
tub
—
yes,
you
read
that
right
(10:35,
15:47).
After
that,
Olivia
spoke
to
us
about
the
importance
of
automation
features
in
legal
technology
tools
(22:02),
before
TJ
went
in
on
knowledge
management
features
(26:32),
and
(of
course!)
AI
(32:45).
After
that,
Olivia
offered
up
an
extremely
helpful
checklist
for
switching
from
one
software
to
another
(42:38).
Finally,
TJ
brought
us
home
by
discussing
the
importance
of
building
“future-proof”
tech
solutions
(46:15).
Are
you
getting
enough
out
of
your
current
software?
That’s
a
rhetorical
question
—
because
the
answer
is
“no.”
So
listen
to
this
podcast
episode,
and
find
out
how
to
get
more!
