Law Cats and Cats practicing law

Remember that viral video of the lawyer who appeared in court as a cat? It was hilarious, but it also highlighted a serious issue: many attorneys struggle to adapt to new technology. Here is the video

The “LawCat” Advantage

Luckily, I’m not one of those attorneys. My trusty feline assistant, LawCat (the CatBot, not the real cat), has been trained to gather your information and pass it along to me. While her attention span might be limited (nap time is important!), she’s a whiz at getting the basics down.

The Generational Divide

The legal profession isn’t always known for embracing new technology. I’m part of a “bridge generation” that straddles the old and new ways of practicing law. I still appreciate a good pen and paper, but I’m also comfortable with video conferencing, e-filing, and yes, even virtual court appearances.

For some older attorneys, though, the transition has been more difficult. Illinois’ mandate for email service a few years ago even prompted some to retire rather than adapt!

Thriving in a Virtual World

When the pandemic hit, my virtual practice was already up and running. This meant I could continue serving clients seamlessly, offering uncontested divorce solutions without missing a beat once the Courts reopened.

Technology isn’t just a convenience; it’s essential for modern legal practice. It allows for flexibility, efficiency, and greater accessibility for clients.

A Blend of Old and New

While technology plays a crucial role in my practice, I also recognize the value of personal connection.  I’m here to listen to your story and guide you through the divorce process.
