  • A Changing Legal Market and the Delivery of Legal Services
    www.peabodyarnold.com A Changing Legal Market and the Delivery of Legal Services Related Practices By Peabody and Arnold on August 17, 2017 Professional Liability Litigation Bart Centauro’s article on : A Changing Legal Market and the Delivery of Legal Services which appears in the ABA/BNA publication Lawyer’s Manual on Professional Conduct appears here. For the pdf version in the ABA/BNA publication Click Here. Sam Cooke told us that “A Change is Gonna Come.” Never has that been truer for the legal profession than it is today. Our competitors, the demands from our clients, and how we practice are all markedly different than only five years ago, and each will continue to evolve over the next decade. These issues were discussed during the ABA’s Spring 2017 National Legal Malpractice Conference in a session moderated by Steven Couch, the president and CEO of the Ohio Bar Liability Insurance Company. The panel also included Steve Crossland of Crossland Law Offices in Cashmere, Washington; Margrett George of the Lawyers Insurance Fund and the Law Society of British Columbia; Trevor McCann of Clyde & Co Montreal, Quebec; and Jordan Furlong, a legal market analyst at Law21 in Ottawa, Ontario. Woven throughout the discussion was one overriding question: As legal services become more expensive and more specialized, how can we as a profession ensure not only that everyone has access to quality legal services but that everyone can afford them too? The Changing Face of the Legal Market Lawyers today face two challenges above all others that are leading to an evolution of the legal services industry: the rise of domestic and foreign non-law firm entities that provide basic legal services that were previously the exclusive domain of law firms; and the evolution of the marketplace where clients demand better customer service at lower costs.

  • Do-It-Yourself Wills
    Do-It-Yourself Wills David Horton* Although most testators hire lawyers, others draft their own wills. Some try to comply with the Wills Act, which requires testamentary instruments to be signed by the testator and by two witnesses. Some create holographic wills, which are valid in about half of American states, and must be in the testator’s handwriting rather than attested. Some purchase fill-in-the-blank forms. And some have started using online will-making software sold by companies like Nolo Press, LegalZoom, and Rocket Lawyer. These do-it-yourself (“DIY”) testamentary instruments are controversial. Proponents argue that they empower people who are too poor or too sick to consult an attorney, but critics assail them as a fertile source of litigation. Nevertheless, there is no hard data about how homemade wills compare to their professionally drafted counterparts. This contribution to the American College of Trusts and Estates Counsel and UC Davis Law Review Symposium improves our understanding of these issues by analyzing 1,133 recently-probated estates from Alameda and San Francisco Counties in California. The Article reaches three main conclusions. First, it is unclear whether people who create their own wills are less wealthy than those who hire lawyers. Second, there is some evidence that DIY devices are particularly useful for testators who fall gravely ill. Third, even controlling for the impact of other variables through a regression analysis, holographs in Alameda County and self-made and attested wills in San Francisco County are correlated with a statistically significant increase in the odds of litigation. Accordingly, the Article provides qualified support to both sides in this debate.

    i Regional Oral History Office University of California The Bancroft Library Berkeley, California Ralph “Jake” Warner Founder of Nolo Press Interviews conducted by Julie Stein in 2009 Copyright © 2012 by The Regents of the University of California ii Since 1954 the Regional Oral History Office has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Ralph “Jake” Warner, dated July 7, 2009. The manuscript is thereby made available for research purposes. All literary rights in the manuscript, including the right to publish, are reserved to The Bancroft Library of the University of California, Berkeley.

  • Embracing Disruption: How Technological Change in the Delivery of Legal Services Can Improve Access to Justice
    BRESCIA ET AL. 3/11/2015 10:24 AM EMBRACING DISRUPTION: HOW TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE IN THE DELIVERY OF LEGAL SERVICES CAN IMPROVE ACCESS TO JUSTICE Raymond H. Brescia* Walter McCarthy** Ashley McDonald*** Kellan Potts**** Cassandra Rivais***** I. INTRODUCTION Change has come to the legal profession. Technology has super- charged the ability of lawyers to conduct lightning-fast legal research; engage in e-discovery; bend time and space by communicating with clients, colleagues, and adversaries scattered throughout the world; and draft hundreds if not thousands of documents with a few key strokes. But just as technology has made lawyering easier, it has also made it easier to provide services that look a lot like lawyering. And the provision of legal services is becoming commodified: carried out by lawyers and nonlawyers alike in a way that is far less expensive than the traditional, “bespoke” model of lawyering. In the words of Clayton Christensen, the legal profession is in the midst of a disruption: a monumental, transformative shift in shape and focus that will change the practice of law forever. Some lament this phenomenon. Some worry that it signals the end of big law and * Associate Professor of Law and Director, Government Law Center, Albany Law School.
