This is a sample of the slides from one of the classes in Tech in Law Practice for the Digital Lawyering Program at the University of Dayton School of Law. I teach these classes online for the students and we also engage in different assignments through a virtual law firm simulation.

I'm using the frameworks in Marc Lauritsen's book, Lawyer's Guide to Working Smarter with Knowledge Tools and Richard Susskind's End of Lawyers? as well as materials from my own books and other podcasts and videos from experts.

So for example, UI is not just…
* Balance

Design is about how things work. And User Interface design is about how to design a system so that humans can understand it.,
So, aside from the fact that we're enamored with beautiful technology here at MILOFest. Why should Lawyers learn a little bit about UI?
Because you're an advocate. You want to help your client. You need to persuade people - opposing counsel, judges, juries, your client.
Because it improves your communication. People understand things better when they're presented well. And that builds trust. it's going to build trust with your clients.

Legal Technology Vision (Singapore) 2018 update v 2Benjamin Ang
Singapore Academy of Law's Legal Technology Vision is a five-year roadmap to help the legal industry leverage technology to enhance their practice. It is also a call to action for legal technology providers to engage in public-private collaboration for the building of a legal tech ecosystem.
This is the lecture for the subject Management of Law Office and Court Technology, part of the Diploma in Law and Management / Diploma in Legal Executive Studies at Temasek Polytechnic.
Disruption is a common theme among many tech evangelists. "Futurists” are predicting that robots and artificial intelligence will result in job losses for employees within professions. I'm not an evangelist or a futurist, but I think we can take it as a given that "Robots" will reshape all professions, including those in the legal field.
In this presentation I've tried to explore how our conceptions of "lawyering" might be changed by the introduction of "robots" into the legal profession. Technology has a habit of both substituting and complementing. Automation will raise output, but it also leads to higher demand for workers who can uniquely supply tasks that machines cannot supply.
Take a look at the range of information technologies of law that are assisting with raising output. The presentation will also offer glimpses of what legal professions can uniquely supply and robots cannot.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte.
