Most Americans don't have access to legal service.State bar rules are one of the reasons for this crisis.I recently wrote an essay in the Yale Law Journal to encourage state bars to thoughtfully reform their rules. yalelawjournal.org/forum/der…

Here's what the debate over re-regulation of legal service looks like. Compare the Op-ed @z_demeola and I just wrote and the one to which it responds. Reform will enable legal service for everyone. The opposition seeks to prevent new competition. dailyjournal.com/articles/36…

A moving piece on Prof Deborah Rhode, who passed away Jan 9th. To call her death "untimely" understates the sudden shock many of are feeling, with tennis games unplayed, articles left in draft, a movement - in part hers - underway but unfulfilled. lawyerwatch.wordpress.com/20…

We have lost a true leader with the passing of Deborah Rhode. She helped us all understand the role of law in the world, and our duty to help it do more and better. She leaves a great legacy in her writings, her students, and her inspiration for the pursuit of justice.

Successful operation during the pandemic will become a gateway for progress for the most thoughtful law firms. As 2021 began @bobambrogi and I discussed how law firms can achieve a competitive advantage by drawing on lessons learned in 2020. litera.com/litera-tv/episode…

Andrew makes really important points in this post. Our outmoded regulatory system actually denies the majority of our people the legal service they need. The opposite of its stated purpose.

"The pushback from the legal establishment on reviewing the regulation within law is little more than a combination of classism, bruised egos, thinly veiled racism, and a deep-seated fear of competition."

In an important Op-ed this week, Justice Gorsuch and former Colorado Supreme Court Justice Kourlis made a clear and compelling case for reform of our restrictive rules that limit access to justice for our people. A must read for all state bar leaders. usatoday.com/story/opinion/2…

The current regulatory model is unnecessarily restrictive and prescriptive. It impedes achievement of the fundamental objectives of our profession.

The legal system is overregulated. Did you know that in 2005 the Dean of Stanford Law failed the Bar Exam?
We need a system fueled by certified and regulated professionals who can deliver value at different steps of an individual's legal journey.
Reregulation, not deregulation!
