I spoke with Mike Whelan, Jr., a lawyer and communications strategist, who is the author of Lawyer Forward: Finding Your Place in the Future of Law. We discussed his inspiration for Lawyer Forward, how the law firm business model is changing, his vision for a modern law practice, ways that legal education needs to adapt, techniques law firms can employ to train and support their professionals, and how law students and newer lawyers can reimagine their futures in the profession.
