023 - Legal Hackers with Jonathan Askin

Professor at Brooklyn Law School and founder of the Brooklyn Law Incubator and Policy Clinic, Jonathan has a lot on his plate.  He still found time to talk to me on the I AM THE LAW Podcast about the role of legal technology in educating law students and helping them find jobs where they can, you know, actually use the skills they learned.  He's one of the most optimistic people I've ever spoken to, and his take on the future of technology and the law is worth of a listen.
