What you’ll get

Every edition follows the same structure.

Concise enough for a managing partner to finish. Substantial enough to save and share with partners.

  1. 01
    The idea

    One important development, observation or question.

  2. 02
    The evidence

    What we actually know.

  3. 03
    Why it matters

    What it could mean for law firms.

  4. 04
    My view

    Dan’s interpretation, clearly separated from evidence.

  5. 05
    What I’m watching

    One open question or emerging development.

  6. 06
    From FirmRanker

    Where appropriate, a research observation or question.

Why this format

Each edition separates what we know from what I think — so you can use the evidence and weigh the opinion for yourself.
