VLOTech is featured in the June issue of the ABA’s GP/Solo Magazine in an article entitled “Virtual Law Practice: A Passing Trend or the Wave of the Future?” by Aviva Cuyler and Nicole Black.
The article concludes that virtual law practice is more than just a passing trend and is “part of the next wave of lawyering.” The article discusses how a virtual law practice may be used in addition to or as an alternative to a traditional law practice. In reference to the benefits of operating a virtual law practice, the authors write:
This flexibility also translates into greater control over work-life balance; lawyers with a virtual practice can work not only wherever but also whenever they want to. And newfound technology allows lawyers to communicate and collaborate online with clients, other lawyers, paralegals, and assistants, irrespective of the physical distance that separates each from the other.
The article recommends that attorneys who are considering virtual law practice first consult with the company providing the software as a service product to have all of their questions addressed regarding the security of the system, data return and retention, among other concerns related to taking a law practice online.
VLOTech has addressed many of these questions in our Faqs page as well as on our newly added Resources page. In addition, we would be happy to answer any other questions or concerns about our virtual law practice product. Please contact us at launch@vlotech.com for more information.
