Is it time to switch up the traditional model of law school and legal education?
While it is usually tough to make predictions, especially about the future, this is particularly challenging in turbulent environments. In the 21st century, new technological advances that change the way people relate to one another and to the very notion of work, give us pause for renewed and careful speculation about the status of the law and legal industry. In the long term, both the status of the law and the roles that humans have in the legal process will have to be reshaped and redefined by these forces, and therefore they must inform the future of law school and legal education.
