This is an interesting article about trends in the legal industry. It discusses a new group of attorneys that has been on the rise: the “alt. legal” entrepreneur-attorneys.

The article argues that these “alt. legal” entrepreneur-attorneys will be the most financially successful as well as best-situated to help the most amount of people. The article states: “By 2027 the legal industry will produce many billionaires, but few, if any, will be practicing attorneys – they will be alt.legal entrepreneurs solving huge problems at scale.”

The author argues that there is no better time for traditional attorneys and big-law firms to consider changing their methods and missions. The article states: “[T]here is a massive opportunity to innovate in legal.”

Worth the read, and perfectly aligns with our class discussions!
