Australia’s legal profession has made
great strides, in recent years, in transforming day-to-day practice
methodologies. However, are lawyers their own worst enemies
when it comes to achieving true and lasting innovation?
On this episode of Legal Lightbulbs, our hosts — Lawyers Weekly
editor Jerome Doraisamy and Bowd chief executive Fionn Bowd — speak
with ALTA president and Legally Yours chief executive Karen
Finch about barriers to
innovation for lawyers, but also the
unexpected creativity of lawyers.
The trio also debate whether legal practice
should be focused on
innovation even with economic storm clouds on
the horizon, and the disparity between
box-ticking exercises and truly innovative mindsets. They
also provide some practical advice to lawyers who believe that
things should be done better, but they aren’t sure where to
start.
