Among the top stories our panelists discuss: ballot initiatives in California and Massachusetts raise data privacy issues, Deloitte acquires UK top 200 law firm Kemp Little, a report examines the viability of captive ALSPs, legal tech patents soar in China, an ethics opinion raises COVID-19 issues, chatbots for legal marketing, and new lawyer-matching site that also provides free practice software.
