Legal tech blogger and Massachusetts lawyer Bob Ambrogi has released his annual list of top 10 legal trends from the last year. When examining 2021, Ambrogi names uncertainty as the number one trend, “as if we are serving time in a legal tech limbo.” Unlike 2020, Ambrogi also adds lack of progress in the world of regulatory reform to the list. The inequalities of remote work, lack of diversity in the legal profession and the courts’ adaptation of new technology are also featured on the list. Ambrogi rounds out the top 10 by asserting that the hybrid legal industry isn’t going anywhere. “The key takeaway from the past two years is that hybrid is actually better in most cases,” Ambrogi writes. “For legal professionals, it offers healthier work-life balance without diminishing productivity.” Read the full list here.
