    Catherine Sanders Reach Shares Practical Mobile Phone Tips but Really Enjoys Widgets, Swipy Keyboards, and Flame Animations on her Android

    My guest today is Catherine Sanders Reach who is the Director of the Center for Practice Management at the North Carolina Bar Association. You may not recognize Catherine's name immediately, but if you've sat through a technology-related CLE conference or session in the past 10 years, there is a very good chance you've benefitted from Catherine's expertise and practical training. I first connected with Catherine back in the early 2000's when she was the Director of the Legal Technology Resource Center at the ABA. Then she moved to the Chicago Bar Association where we worked together several times. Catherine has also served on several Planning Boards for the annual ABA TECHSHOW Conference, including my Board in 2015, and then she led her OWN Planning Board in 2020! (which was the last in-person event I attended before the world imploded, and it was a GREAT event!) Some of the tips covered in the podcast: Always read the reviews! Treat your phone as an $800 disposable device! Don't ignore OS or app updates! Know how to find your device! Some of the apps covered in this podcast: Lookout for Android and iOS Device Care for Android SMS Backup and Restore for Android (free) SMS Backup and Restore for Android ($4.49) Your Phone from Microsoft for Windows 10 Where you can find Catherine: North Caroline Bar Association Center for Practice Management Catherine's LinkedIn Profile

    Kasim Te from LawStack Explains Why the App Was Designed to Provide Seamless and Unfettered Access to Legal Rules and Statutes [Developer's Edition]

    This is the second "Developer's Edition" podcast and I'm excited to have on Kasim Te, the founder of Tekk Innovations LLC which develops a variety of legal reference apps, but their flagship app called LawStack. By the way, this podcast is NOT sponsored, I just enjoy giving app developers a platform where they can share their story, and you can learn more about the app. I've been a big fan of LawStack for many years because the app has first of all replaced a lot of legal books that I used to keep on my shelf like all good lawyers. But also because the app has generously been free, with several federal and state rules available for free, while others cost a small subscription (but much less than what we used to pay for supplements, etc.). LawStack has been around for a little over 10 years and they're still going strong!

    Bill Roach from ExhibitView Explains How Playing Guitar Can Improve Your Trial Presentation Skills [Developer's Edition]

    Today we're trying something I've been wanting to do for a while … I always enjoy talking with attorneys and legal professionals about how they use apps in their practice and daily workflows, but I also know several app developers in this space, and I wanted to hear their stories too! So this is the "Developer's Edition" podcast and my guest today is Bill Roach from ExhibitView Solutions.  By the way, this podcast is NOT sponsored, Bill is just someone I wanted to talk with and invited to him share his story. I plan to invite other app developers on the podcast as well so stay tuned! I've had the pleasure of knowing Bill for many years now and followed his work at ExhibitView which offers the impressive ExhibitView Trial Presenter software. This is the software for PC that lets you create "callouts" from documents on-the-fly that you're showing on a projector or TV screen. You can also highlight text and annotate the document you're displaying.  But Bill and his team also recognized the power of the iPad early on, and developed the iTrial app, which lets you do a lot of the same callouts and annotations from the iPad! In fact, I just released a video review of the iTrial app on my site www.appsinlaw.com. Now many of you listening know there are other apps on the market that can do this, and we may talk to them at some point in another Developer's Edition, but I wanted to invite Bill on the podcast to share his story… Apps & Services mentioned in this podcast: ExhibitView Solutions LLC ExhibitView Trial Presenter Software (PC) iTrial app for the iPad Bill Roach's LinkedIn Profile   Rock-a-Billy Roach on Apple Music Song: "Shake a Little Love" by Rock-a-Billy Roach Song: "Hurry Up Hurry Up Santa Claus" by Al Jardine (original co-founder of the Beach Boys) and Bill Roach
