Microphone photoFrom time to time, I like to post a set of links to recent Kennedy-Mighell Report podcasts and to podcast interviews I’ve done. It’s that time again.

Let me start with a recent very fun and wide-ranging interview I did for Lora Cheadle and her Flaunt! podcast. The episode is titled “Technology, the Legal Profession and What That Means for You.”

From the episode description:

As a former lawyer, I like to think of the law as the invisible rules that hold our society together. Everything we do, from marriage, to children, to jobs, to driving, to buying a home or renting an apartment is governed by some sort of law. And whether or not we are aware of what those laws say or require, we are still impacted by them every day.

Similar to the way the internet has brought us access to more medical information than ever before, so too has it increased our access to legal information. This impacts the consumer, but it also impacts the lawyers. Now, more than ever, lawyers must embrace technology so they can serve their clients in the most effective, efficient manner. And if they can’t, then another lawyer certainly will!

Fortunately there are lawyers such as Dennis Kennedy out there who are leading the charge.

You will find the episode here.

It’s been great recently to keep running into listeners of The Kennedy-Mighell Report podcast. We started the podcast in 2006 and it’s always nice to meet listeners who like what we are doing. We also love getting questions from listeners about legal technology that we can use in the show. We even have a voicemail number for you to leave your questions (anything is fair game) for us – (720) 441-6820. Or, as Tom might say “(720) 441-6820, again, that’s (720) 441-6820.”

We’ve just completed the first half of 2019. Here’s the list:
