Three Lessons We've Learned During the Pandemic - David Lat

When David Lat, Managing Partner of Lateral Link, contracted COVID-19 back in March, he made the pandemic real and personal for many of us in the legal industry. Three months later, I have him as my last guest on In Seclusion and ask him what lessons we've learned through it all. He gave me three.

1. We've learned to work successfully on a remote basis. This is no small deal for the legal industry who stressed the need to be in the office.
2. Lawyers and legal professionals have learned how to use more technology tools in a more effective and efficient way. It turns out that lawyers can learn new tech when they are forced to.
3. We all have gained a great perspective of what's truly important to us in our work and in our personal lives.

It's been a challenging three months of working during a pandemic, an economic crisis, and a time of social upheaval. It's been a pleasure talking with over 70 professionals and having them share their experiences, insights, and predictions with us all. If you haven't caught all of the episodes, I suggest going through the list and picking out a few to binge. Stay safe, healthy, and sane everyone!

Remember, we may all be In Seclusion, but we're in this together.
