Great article from our friends at Fairfax Associates. I have some deeper thoughts over on my LinkedIn profile, but the question is: are you having the conversation in your firms about how AI is impacting the practice and the business of law? If not, why? #businessoflaw #legalmarketing

My dad taught me a lot of life lessons, some on purpose others not so on purpose. He taught me how to play backgammon, traumatized me by taking me to see The Exorcist when I was 10 at a drive in, and instilled in me a love for the Dodgers. So glad I got to see him for Father’s Day!!

I found my people. #NoKings #Sacramento @kamalaharris.com @governorwalz.mn.gov

#ITFDB Most likely our only game of the year :(((

I definitely called this. The EOs would have a chilling effect on pro bono, and the numbers now prove it. #RuleOfLaw

This one hurts. RIP Mike Peters, love #GenX

Happy Easter to all who celebrate.

Took my 85 year old mom to the protest today. #50501 #nolasky @indivisible.org #handsoff

April 5. Let's get into some #GoodTrouble @booker.senate.gov

OMG. We’re (maybe) getting an IKEA!!!! I gasped so loud I freaked the Sports Dude out.

If Trans rights are important to you may I suggest following @erininthemorning.com here and being a paid subscriber to her substack.

In the action against Jenner & Block, it is the attack on their pro bono program that really caught my eye and hits me in the gut. "Jenner & Block LLP (Jenner) is yet another law firm that has abandoned the profession’s highest ideals ... 1/4 #RuleofLaw #businessoflaw

They will not stop until it is you and your firm. #ruleoflaw

Me in the national security team group chat

Fine. I will have FOMO not being at #LegalWeek so I expect great posts and from y’all … and don’t skip the conversations surrounding the #RuleOfLaw

As a Jew I feel the need to put it out there that Netanyahu and the actions of the Israeli government do not represent me any more than Trump and the current actions of DOGE, and the inaction of the GOP in Congress to stop them, represent me as an American.

A good read. #businessoflaw #ruleoflaw #legalmarketing @americanlawyer.bsky.social (not sure if that's #AmericanLawyer #law.com)

Hope to see you there #nolasky @reptroycarter.bsky.social

Thank you to the #SistersInLaw for covering the #PerkinsCoie (Coie, as in gooey) presidential action. It is a disgrace to the #RuleOfLaw @joycewhitevance.bsky.social @kimberlyeatkins.bsky.social @barbmcquade.bsky.social @jillwine-banks.bsky.social

First they came for Covington & Burling LLP and I said nothing because I was not at a white shoe firm. Then they came for Perkins Coie and I said nothing because I did not represent the DNC. #ruleoflaw 1/4

I agree wtih @marcelias.bsky.social, we CANNOT give into the fear. "Even big law firms — whose ethical obligations are to zealously represent clients and uphold the rule of law — fear being targeted by an irrational, vindictive president." #businessoflaw #democracy #tyranny #legalmarketing 1/2

Hey #RamsHouse, you’ll love this one. #matthewstafford #aaronDonald @newheightsofficial.bsky.social

Congrats to the good people at #perkinscoie on an amazing win via the good people at #williamsConnoly The #RuleOfLaw is still intact.

You can’t erase or wash away history. #BlackLivesMatter

Scrim sightings at Krewe de Barkus. #nolasky

As a member of the legal industry I find these statements terrifying. #businessoflaw #legalmarketing

Big law has been silent. The @americanbar.org has your back. First they came for Covington and I said nothing because I’m not a white shoe firm. Then they came for Perkins and I said nothing because I don’t represent the DNC. Then they came for ?? @viviachen.bsky.social Who’s next??

18-minute pod discussing the current environment in which individual lawyers and law firms have become, and may become, political targets. “The rule of law is not self-sustaining, it requires constant defense,” @ginarubel.bsky.social #businessoflaw #legalmarketing #publicrelations #ruleoflaw

It is important that the legal ecosystem-lawyers, judiciary, legal tech/admins/recruiters, and, yes, marketers-stand with the ABA and take a stance on protecting the rule of law. As a former 2x Board Member of the Legal Marketing Association I have signed this petition. #lmamkt #businessoflaw

I stand with the ABA. Lawyers are by nature risk adverse and have low resilience. Now is not the time to feed into this. We need the legal profession to be bold and stand up for the rule of law. #businessoflaw #lmamkt

Do we not see what is going on here? Is history not rhyming loudly enough for you? They have targeted the immigrant, the poor, the transgendered, women, elderly, and more. Lawyers and judges are the only ones who can stop this. And they’re coming after them. From @joycewhitevance.bsky.social.

“When a reporter asked about the wisdom of targeting individual law firms and lawyers, Trump made clear that retribution was his goal.” Lawyers, by nature, are risk adverse and don’t want to put a target on them or their firms. But we need you right now. You’re the heroes in this story.

Mr. Rogers always said to look for the helpers. Thank you to @lambdalegal.bsky.social for the following webinar, Know Your Rights: Passports. I'll post the article in the comments. #transgenderrights #transgender #lgbtqia+ 1/2

Great article on the importance of investing in lateral integration. We all know how expensive it is and the risks involved in moving a practice from one firm to the next. Strategic lateral integration is as important, if more important, than strategic growth. #businessoflaw #lmamkt

As we're breaking in a new social media tool, I'm still deciding HOW I want to use it, so I'm not posting too frequently yet. My firm has a Bluesky, but we haven't posted much here yet. But LinkedIn is its own beast, and our profiles, firms, and careers are linked. #businessoflaw #legalmarketing

Today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. For us, we remember the Sports Dude’s grandmother, who did not survive the camps. #NeverAgain

I work a lot and don’t want to spend my weekends hitting five stores to get all the crap I need from hair products to Comet to the weird filter in the back of the fridge. But it’s time. Amazon, it’s you, not me.

Great episode this morning with @staceyabrams.com and @profmmurray.bsky.social. Need to get into the solution here and not get stuck in the problem, or distracted by the flim-flam artistry. What happened to all those day-1 promises? Eggs still expensive? Wars still going on? The beautiful tariffs?

I have some 1-month gift subscriptions to @contrariannews.org if you're interested. Just DM me.

This is what you might call getting “taken to church.”

Max in the #NolaSnow #Sneaux

More #NolaSnow #Sneaux .. the Sports Dude & Clouseau. Max is having the most fun.

We’re having a snow day in NOLA so you’ll have to excuse us. This is Bayou St. John and City Park across the way.

Absolutely disgusted by the ADL. My husband is the child of Holocaust survivors. Flashing a Nazi salute is not something we take lightly.

I gasped out loud. This is who they are. We warned y’all. And it’s only day one.

Do not obey in advance. These are not self-executing laws. Just a wish list.

How the EO process works. The president, no matter who they are, is NOT a king.
