Shifting Focus from 'How' to 'What' and 'Why'
The conversation highlights the need to shift focus from procedural questions like how to meet clients and prepare forms to fundamental issues affecting clients, such as evictions and access to benefits. By concentrating on these core issues, legal professionals can better understand and address the challenges faced by vulnerable populations. This reframing of priorities aims to resolve deeper societal problems rather than getting bogged down by administrative details. Utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) can streamline many of these procedural tasks, freeing up time and resources for more critical client engagement.
