Focus on function; with 'production areas' instead of offices, this firm has no room for ego

Article Abstract:

The design of work areas in the law firm of Nicholas Critelli Associates is discussed. The firm has production areas rather than offices, which serves the idea of getting work out rather than satisfying ego. Research and Diagnostics, Digital Media, and CaseMap are typical names of the areas.

Powering up old courthouses; electronic hearings can be conducted while local community is served

Article Abstract:

Technology can help judges serve rural courthouses in this age of declining budgets by allowing them to hold hearings electronically with parties in remote places. Courts would thus minimize travel expenses and avoid the cost of building regional litigation centers. Judges in rural courthouses could access the files of busier courts by means of a Web nbrowser if such files become part of an Intranet. Technologically leveraged rural courthouses would be a very real advance.

Photos to go - hold the film; digital cameras developing as easy way to snap, snore and send pictures

Article Abstract:

Digital cameras can be useful to lawyers, especially trial lawyers who need to record physical injuries or accident scenes. They operate without film so there is nothing to develop. The capacity of small models is about 75 pictures and is readily transferable to a computer. Results can, of course, be printed. Picture quality does not approach a film camera, but the cameras belong to a technology which is continually improved and there is little doubt of the future trend.
