Excited to celebrate @crossdefault choosing to invest in duration despite the current macro environment. Feel free to DM if you’re around.

All law firms should give first year associates a copy of Setting the Table and make it required reading.

every job will turn into explaining your intentions to ai explaining what you want to ai is surpringly time consuming, coders already spend 80% of their time doing it, and this will be true for everyone

I think discussions like this often assume that law is a deterministic system waiting to be solved. It isn’t. Law is built on multiplicity, and deals with competing values, incomplete information, strategic behavior, procedural constraints, and human judgment. I’m skeptical of the idea of a single “superintelligent lawyer.” The challenge in legal AI isn’t just intelligence (as too many engineers believe). There is also a lack of uniquely correct objectives to optimize.

i’m with tim on the value of everyone having a superintelligent lawyer. but i fear it will quickly turn into handing over all disputes to ai judges. and once we turn over society’s lawmaking and governance to machines, we cease to be a self-directed species, which feels risky.

why would you ever hire a law firm that didn’t have the self-respect to defend itself in the easiest case in the history of American jurisprudence: ft.com/content/5f711e77-a5eb… Donald Trump drops battle against law firms over punitive executive orders

Some clients work with me an hour a month. Some clock dozens of hours. For power user clients, I try to offer volume discounts and monthly flat fee packages where appropriate. I have supreme rate flexibility because, well, it is my firm.

There are a lot of good lawyers on Twitter who don’t charge nosebleed prices. We can do so because we keep overhead low. Many have the elite training you’d expect from a BigLaw firm. I suspect that, like me, many are also responsive, client-centric, value-add advisors.

During rebuttal, said to a Texas Business Court judge that I would “try to kill two birds with one stone.” The judge immediately asked why I was “so insistent on killing birds.” 😅

This is why your lawyer is spending time arguing with their lawyer about the part that says “shall indemnify, defend…” It doesn’t matter until it matters…and then it really matters.

when jpmorgan acquired her company, there was apparently a clause in the contract that said they would cover her legal bills so when they sued her, she used that clause to spend $115,000,000 of their own money to defend against them Jpmorgan lost 175+115=290M 🤣
