Most of the lawyers had an anxiety that technology in future will be a reason for the end of lawyer’s dominion. Where lawyers were stepping back from the line of technology, law itself kept progressing towards the growing technology. Folks who have opted legal sector as their profession had a great hand on technology in their personal life but that influence faded when it came to the professional lives.
On one hand, the pandemic which is being a restriction for every single business sector, on the other hand it has poised legal sector to accept the technology and keep functioning. The use of technology has completely transformed the sector and gave it a way to work remotely and efficiently.
Use of technology in the legal sector:
As of now technology has been only induced in legal sector to a certain functions only, such as automating data saving and management. The reason behind it is mindset of legal professionals, but now they need to change it for the sake of professional and industrial growth. The next step that is going to transform the complete sector is use of technology in dispute solving. For an amicable dispute solving, technology can be the most potential aid.
The era of legal sector will be completely indulged in video conferencing, meetings via web conferencing, and many more. There are a number of online software that supports legal sector for online dispute resolving, and more.
