“Goat Entrails and Tea Leaves – Predicting the Future of Law Practice” by Sensei’s Sharon D. Nelson, Esq., John W. Simek, and Michael C. Maschke was recently featured in Slaw Magazine. Slaw is a Canadian online legal magazine.
The Battle Royal: Hybrid or Back to the Office?
You might as well resort to reading goat entrails and tea leaves to predict the future of law practice, because it is woefully unclear what law firms will decide. There are two large and outspoken groups, those who believe that we need to get back to the office if we haven’t already and those who believe that some combination of going to the office and working from home is the way to go.
As COVID continues to complicate our lives, most law firms we deal with are opting for the hybrid solution – not all of them enthused about it. Most, but certainly not all, of the law firm managing partners we have spoken with believe that remote working is less productive and that it seriously hurts the law firm culture.
Law firms find remote collaboration more difficult – there is a distinct advantage of having a team in a room with a white board working things out. Engagement via Zoom seems to pale in comparison.
