David Kamien is the CEO of Mind-Alliance Systems, which develops software solutions to improve law firms’ marketing, business development, and knowledge management.  David has over 25 years of experience delivering consulting and technology solutions to global law firms, corporate legal departments, government agencies, and NGOs. Through his firm, David offers a weekly newsletter on legal technology and innovation, which is read by hundreds of innovation and knowledge management professionals.  David believes that in-house counsel and their outside law firms and service providers need to share information continuously in order to mitigate legal risk proactively. That’s why he created Mind-Alliance Systems — to build knowledge hubs for lawyers and their firms so they can facilitate a shared situational awareness.  In this episode… Why are law firms struggling to collaborate effectively across all people and departments? The answer may lie in a firm’s technological solutions and processes. According to David Kamien, collaboration is often a challenge for law firms because information is not widely — and quickly — accessible. Luckily, Mind-Alliance Systems has a solution that uses machine learning and AI technology to filter news and alerts and pull up relevant information to further knowledge sharing. Their system also offers smart folders with various filters, which is an accessible tool that holds everything a firm knows (and wants to know) about a client. What other developments can help your firm communicate, collaborate, and drive the bottom line? In this episode of The Lawyer’s Edge Podcast, Elise Holtzman talks with David Kamien, CEO of Mind-Alliance Systems, about investing in solutions to improve business development. David discusses how knowledge sharing is beneficial to firms, the importance of analyzing data to identify growth potential, and the key roles your firm might be missing. David also shares how Mind-Alliance Systems can help your firm work more efficiently, collaborate across areas, and act on a shared solution!

David Kamien | How Law Firms Can Share Knowledge and Leverage Data To Drive Improved Business Results

David Kamien is the CEO of Mind Alliance and is someone who understands that in order to truly collaborate with your clients, you have to understand their needs on a granular level. That means capturing the data in a way that proactively predicts legal and regulatory risks that companies like them are likely to face, but also list the probable impact that those risks are likely to impact them specifically. While this may sound like a pipe dream to some, and a delusion to others, Kamien thinks that improving the state of data in law firms through knowledge graphs and taking concrete, and logical steps toward improving and leveraging data, will help get law firms to where they can leverage the data in ways that will truly turn them into counselors to their clients. It means creating a data strategy for the firm that creates higher levels of sophistication so that the data turns into answers, and those answers turn into the types of action that clients are willing to pay for. Law firms should not sit back and wait for this to magically happen. If you want to generate value, you are going to have to collaborate very closely with clients. And in this day and age, that involves data.  Information Inspirations Most of us in the information profession have touted our skills as fact finders. In this time of misinformation on the Internet, that skillset is needed more than ever and seems to be showing up more and more in the media as they look for Misinformation Experts like the University of Washington's Information School, Jevin West. West appeared this week on one of our favorite non-legal podcasts, Make Me Smart, where he uncovered some of the reasoning behind the cult that is QAnon, and why its ability to manipulate information makes it so popular, and so hard to convince those believers in the conspiracy that it really is misinformation.  Staying in touch with clients and others isn't simply about setting up the next Zoom meeting. Julie Saravino produced a great list of ways to have that personal interaction with others in a way that "ups your game" and makes you stand out from those who still rely upon Zoom, email, and phone calls.

Using Data to Really Know Your Clients and Predict Their Needs - David Kamien

David Kamien, CEO, and co-founder of Mind Alliance discusses how when COVID-19 began shutting down the economy, law firms opened up a firehose of thought leadership for their clients. While the clients’ inboxes were overflowing with information, and firms were establishing COVID-19 resource pages, the ability for the client to easily search and filter that information was very limited. David thinks that firms are honestly trying to help their clients through the distribution of relevant information, but the way the information is distributed, accessed and indexed is creating barriers for the client that needs to be corrected. The information has to be more consumable by the client and that means organizing it, placing metadata into the information, and giving the user better filtering ability. There needs to be a shared situation awareness between law firms and clients, and not just during a crisis. Remember, we may all be In Seclusion, but we’re in this together.
