Sensei Article Featured In Pennsylvania Bar Association Newsletter

August 11, 2020

The Summer 2020 edition of the Pennsylvania Bar Association Solo & Small Firm Section Newsletter featured an article entitled “Double Whammy on Law Firms: COVID-19 and the Troubled Economy” by Sharon Nelson and John Simek.

Excerpt:

Clio’s survey, released in May 2020, showed that during March, new legal matters were down more than 30% compared to the first five weeks of 2020 and down by more than 40% from the year’s highest weekly averages. 56% percent of legal professionals say they have seen a serious reduction in the number of people asking for legal help, and 53% say they are significantly less busy.

Though understandable, 49% of companies say that if they had a legal issue now, they would probably delay getting legal help until the pandemic has receded. Sixty-seven percent of lawyers are worried about the success (and even the survival) of their practice and 57% are worried about making a living over the next few months
