It works but produces pdfs. That becomes a problem. More importantly, you spend FAR more time writing documents using latex than word. The friction is enough to make writing legal stuff with it not worth the pain.
I'm a lawyer, though most of my writing is related to litigation, not contracts. I did this in my 30s. It worked just fine and made beautiful PDFs. However, judges got pissed, because they have their own software to…
Assuming, arguendo, that corruption is somehow not a factor in your scenario, it still doesn't account for ignorance. Consider that jurors in jury trials have one binary decision to make based on the facts and law given…
As a prosecuting attorney who selects and works to convince the "average" juror 5+ times a year, this is not a good idea. You are vastly overestimating what the average level of competence is. Most people, when given…
You believe the top 60% of the nation skew in the upper income levels? Median pay is $61k a year for the entire country. The top 1% skews to the upper income levels. The rest are charged $30 for a dose of aspirin and…
I love this. I love finding resources that genuinely empower others. Thanks for the sacrifice in writing this
I have used it now for almost 7 years running a law firm. It's worked great for exactly our use case: privileged emails, including attachments, can be time and passworded with legit TNO encryption. I initially used…
No one is freeing up resources for a felony prosecutor by eliminating Driving Under Suspended cases, handled by a completely different prosecutor in a completely different courtroom. No one's saving a felony docket by…
I am a prosecutor. I used to be a criminal defense attorney. Crime comes from a complicated collection of sources and circumstances. Efforts to reduce crime, therefore, require an evaluation of the complications and…
I’ll start by saying I’m a lawyer, not ever a professional coder. Years ago, I wanted to help a friend translate a Japanese video game and release a fan translation. I had some experience in assembler a long time before…
I recommend you read the first four chapters of The Startup Owners Manual by Steve Blank and Bob Dorf. In those chapters, they talk about the importance of understanding your users, not “build it and they will come.” I…
This is going to depend heavily on the state, unless you try to volunteer with federal prison (called the bureau of prisons). Most states call their state prison system the department of corrections. I would conduct a…
I don’t understand why he wouldn’t have a GPS device if it’s that much of a threat. Her location doesn’t matter as much as his.
Domestic violence and DR attorney here, formerly DV prosecutor. Depending on the laws on the state, she needs to find a way to authenticate her worries about his cyber-stalking. If she has enough to validate the concern…

This is why I don’t use DEs anymore. If you go to the trouble of automating a base install with a preferred wm, you don’t have much to configure but you have a stable and usable system straight away. Still doesn’t…
I am a criminal defense attorney. The picture painted by the article is pretty accurate. I would say the police were probably over-hyped by the night they had, so their behavior might have been elevated more than usual.…
I practiced in Virginia for about 6 years. I handled approx 150 DUIs there. It is in the officers best interest to exaggerate their findings while investigating a crime. So ok. Yeah. Most officers don’t “lie.” But they…
Which will be preserved by....attorneys.
Attorneys are regulated internally, by the bar itself. So the bar has set a number of ethical rules/regulations that attorneys must adhere to, otherwise be sanctioned/lose their license. For many attorneys, they must…
Criminal trial attorney. The problem is the rules attorney must follow make it very difficult to step away, even to know how to step away.
If I understand you right, you're saying an employer has ZERO responsibility if their employees are overworked because the employee could always just "choose another job." This does not align with reality the vast…
The problem is sites don't need ping to do their tracking. In the past, search engines would just force a redirect to gather all the metrics they want for which link you go to. Most browsers put ping in as default…
I'm not sure what other companies are trying the same thing. Staying with companies that definitely peddle your data and privacy versus investing in a company who hopefully promotes a better way seems pretty…
No, I don't think skim milk is a byproduct of anything. With whole milk you can get whey and cheese. You can get butter and buttermilk. But skim milk has to be intentionally done. Im pretty sure.
