I don't think I have seen the challenge stated so starkly "the biggest competitor for law firms in the future...is AI-empowered clients." Profound.

UFCs require specialized judges with background in and knowledge of family law. This should include experience implementing children's rights, particularly their right to meaningful participation and voice. UFCs would be a significant step forward.
Unified family court system needed across Canada to deal with ‘crisis’ in system: Advocates Society. UFC would combine jurisdictions and help ease delays in settling family law disputes, says report.

The BC Court of Appeal has re-affirmed that courts must take into account the impact of indirect violence on a child's best interests when deciding parenting arrangements, not just direct violence against the child. Huge victory for Rise and Rise Lawyer, Vandana Sood
The Court allowed an appeal from a final parenting order that provided the father with equal and unsupervised parenting time, finding the trial judge failed to conduct a proper analysis of the mother's allegations of family violence. bccourts.ca/jdb-txt/ca/24/00…

As usual, I found @jordan_law21's most recent post on the future of the legal profession very thoughtful and provocative. Jordan identifies 3 ways in which human lawyers will continue to be relevant, even if (when?) technology supplants some (much?) of the work we currently do:

We need justice workers, yes!
So excited to follow @NikoleNelson10 & team at Frontline Justice! Listen in to @bobambrogi's @LawNextPodcast to learn more.
Also, curious how many lawyers are also truly "justice workers"?
We don't have to be. So maybe we should let others.

"When you can no longer sell the time it takes to achieve a client’s outcome, then you must sell the outcome itself and the client’s experience of getting there. That completely changes the dynamics of what law firms are all about". We need feedback on the client experience.

I wanted the first piece that I posted in 2024 to be hopeful, practical & profound. So I chose @adamkahane 's recent article on radical collaboration. Radical collaboration is about working together with diverse others from across the system in a way that fundamentally transforms that system. It not only focuses on the good & harmony of the whole, but also embraces conflict & power issues. We need radical collaboration as system leaders to create the relational conditions (affordances) for the big changes ahead: jabsc.org/index.php/jabsc/ar…

Zoom fatigue is not burnout. It’s boreout.
New study: when meetings are virtual, we’re not overwhelmed—we’re understimulated. Cardiac measures show drowsiness, not stress.
The antidotes are common sense but not common practice: fewer, shorter, more interactive online meetings.
Prof. John Lande connects the dots between Kintsugi (the art of mending broken pottery), our own lives and conflict resolution. A very helpful metaphor. Also grateful for Jennifer Brown's cmention of Peter Mayer's song "Japanese Bowls". indisputably.org/2023/12/dec…

We would get better outcomes if, before we introduced policy, we prototyped & tested it, in a low risk, low resource way. We can apply this at many levels from large scale system plans (policy) to testing the concrete actions that follow: co-production, HR, inclusion, clinical governance, procurement etc (policies). See: medium.com/@l.nelson.hamilto… by Laura NH. @PolicyLabUK does brilliant work in this area in the UK & offers free resources & courses. See: openpolicy.blog.gov.uk/
