Approach and introduction to Blockchain. First of all, let's define blockchain in a simple way, it is a technology that consists in its less developed or complex state, in a sort of digital ledger, decentralized and immutable l
Are scanners a technology whose days are numbered? As our use of paper recedes, will scanners, like fax machines before them, eventually become obsolete? I pondered that question as I considered the new Fujitsu ScanSnap iX1300 , which is being released to the market today. Perhaps the day will come when legal professionals will no longer need scanners, but for now, we most certainly still do, and in this age of working from home, this may well be the perfect one to get.

Tone-deaf. As attorneys, we often meet people who have suffered calamities.
