This past weekend, I was delighted to give a short presentation as a part of a seminar with speakers from around the world hosted by two large organizations for lawyers in the Philippines: Legal Hackers Manila and Abogadong Pinoy. The title of the seminar was More Than Word: Apps and other Legal Technology Tools for the Modern Lawyer. The seminar was streamed on Facebook Live, and the recording is still available to watch. Many of the topics of this seminar would be of interest to any lawyer, no matter where in the world you practice law. For example, after I spoke about the iPhone and iPad, legal technology consultant Brett Burney of Apps in Law also gave some advice for mobile computing, and then two speakers talked about a product that uses artificial intelligence in contract negotiations.
The speakers and topics (with the approximate time-stamps if you want to jump to a particular section) are as follows:
0:00:00 — Welcome remarks by Joan de Venecia-Fabul (Manila), PLDT Deputy Chief Counsel and Vice President
0:01:55 — Results of Filipino legal technology survey of by Jeifan-Ira Dizon (Manila), Dizon + Ross
