The ABA Techshow "tips" issue of Law Practice Magazine is live today. The Editor in Chief is Dan Pinnington, and the issue is full of practical technology tips. I am not sure that I am truly "totally mobile" as described, but I do have some tips in that regard in my article Working Virtually: High-Productivity Tips for Traveling Lawyers.

Nicole Garton-Jones is a lawyer and mediator and focuses on mediating wills, estates, elder and family law matters. Nicole is the managing partner of Heritage Law, which is regularly featured in the media about its use of technology and innovative approach to the practice of law. Nicole can also be found at http://twitter.com/NGartonJones
