In this special episode of LawTech Talks, produced in partnership with InfoTrack, we explore how successful women lawyers in practice areas like family law can and must put technology at the forefront of their businesses in order to thrive in an evolving market.

Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with InfoTrack family lawyer Bree Staines about her background in family law, adopting a more flexible working life, the unsustainable demands practice areas like family law have on practitioners, and the ways that women in the profession can set themselves apart when it comes to the use and implementation of new technologies.

Bree also delves into the necessary steps to take in order to drive one's practice forward, the challenges facing women and how to overcome them, tech's role in alleviating burnout, retaining the human touch with your clients, and the potential outcomes on offer from being able to successfully integrate one's business with tech.

At a time when practitioners across the board are increasingly expected to not only onboard new technologies but also elevate the client experience, family lawyers should be seeing such a shift as an opportunity to become truly hybrid operators.

In this episode of The Boutique Lawyer Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Siobhan Mullins, author and founder of Separate Together and Paper Advocate, about her career in family law, how practitioners in this space are moving towards more collaborative ways of working in a changing landscape, and why a hybrid model makes sense for family lawyers.

Mullins also delves into what family lawyers must ask of themselves in transitioning to a more hybrid model, the key outcomes to strive for, overcoming hurdles standing in the way, why such change is exciting, and what she's looking forward to as a practitioner.
