"Richard Susskind predicts a world of online courts, AI-based global legal businesses, disruptive legal technologies, liberalized markets, commoditization, alternative sourcing, simulated practice on the metaverse, and many new legal jobs. This volume offers practical guidance for everyone intending to build careers and businesses in law. It challenges those who feel that the law and lawyers are somehow immune from technological advance; it draws attention to the unaffordability and inaccessibility of legal service, for businesses and citizens alike; it invites the next generation of lawyers to harness the power of technology in improving and even overhauling the way in which legal and court service is currently provided. It enjoins its readers to become involved in building the systems that will replace outmoded forms of legal work" -- Provided by the publisher.
