Using Databases to Understand, Develop and Control Your Case, Presented March 28, 2024

Setting up and using a database might sound daunting, but in fact, a central database can be invaluable for understanding, organizing and developing a case. In other words, it can make your job as an attorney a lot more manageable! We wrote about this topic in this recent post and went more in depth during the webinar, focusing on how to use a favorite tool, CaseMap. Click here to view the recording of this webinar. This free half-hour webinar was originally presented on Friday, March 28.

iPads and Trial Technology in Litigation and Trial Practice, Presented March 6, 2024

There’s no doubt iPads are growing in popularity among attorneys. A recent survey of attorneys primarily at small firms found about 70 percent use an iPad. Last year’s ABA Tech Survey also showed continued growth in iPad and iPhone use among lawyers. If you have an iPad, are you going beyond personal use (for example, using it as an e-reader or to answer email) and using it to full advantage in your law practice? If not, this webinar can help.

In this webinar, Cogent Legal’s Morgan Smith gives very practical, hands-on advice about how to use your iPad with certain apps in court or in meetings for presentations, and how to use it every day to help manage your law practice. This free hour-long webinar was originally presented on Thursday, March 6.
