🎙️ The future of law isn’t just about AI.
It’s about people.


At the Family Law Education Network conference, David sat down with Lara Wentworth, Co-founder & Director of Coaching Advocates, former lawyer turned leadership coach, to unpack what’s really changing inside law firms.


💡 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀:

↳ The biggest challenges in law firms today aren’t technical — they’re human
↳ Mid-tier firms often struggle most — caught between resources and expectations
↳ Careers in law are no longer linear — people are exploring adjacent paths
↳ Leadership (or lack of it) directly impacts culture, retention, and revenue
↳ As AI grows, human skills become the real differentiator


One insight that stood out:

Clients don’t remember the firm.They remember the person they worked with.


As the industry evolves, one thing is clear:

👉 Technical skills might get you in the door👉 But it’s people skills that will define the future
