I’d say with tech companies moving fast, law firms have to keep up with all the new rules and requirements, especially when it comes to things like complex contracts and protecting intellectual property.
I’ve noticed, too, that there’s been a jump in demand for advice on digital finance and trading. Tech is a big deal here as well—take trading bots like forexflexea.com that use algorithms to handle trades automatically. Basically, with more finance and tech clients, law firms are getting pulled into the digital side more and more, which changes the kind of services they need to offer. Feels like law and tech are mixing together a lot these days.
