Legal Commentary
: The Common ScoldSOCIAL MEDIA SPIKES
Catherine Sanders Reach, director of the American Bar Association's Legal Technology Research Center, says lawyers are starting to embrace social media -- but primarily on a personal level, rather than for work.
In the December issue of Law Technology News, Reach discusses the results of the 2009 Legal Technology Survey Report, which is produced in six volumes ("Technology Basics," "Law Office Technology," "Litigation and Courtroom Technology," "Web and Communication Technology," "Online Research," and "Mobile Lawyers"). About 834 ABA attorneys were surveyed for each volume (with 5,005 participating in the project). Among some of the findings:
? 11 percent of respondents said that their firms have policies regarding lawyer or support staff blogging.
? 18 percent of large firms (of 100+ attorneys) have blogs -- a significant increase from the 8 percent reported in the 2007 survey). Yet only 4 percent of respondents (compared with 2 percent in 2008) write a personal legal blog.
