A new article quotes legal experts saying what I've believed for a while: the day is coming when failing to use AI tools in a client's case could be a breach of the standard of care.

The whole profession had the same chance to start learning this. Most didn't. They waited for permission, for a rule, for someone else to go first.

The handful who started early now have a real advantage — and it's the kind that gets harder to catch up to every month.
If you've been on the fence, this is your sign. Begin now. The window's still open, but it's narrowing.

⚠️ MINNESOTA FAMILIES — READ THIS BEFORE YOU SEND A DIME.

A serious bail scam is targeting Minnesota families right now, and it's more convincing than you'd expect. Criminals are pulling real names off public jail rosters, calling family members, and impersonating bail bond agents, sheriffs, and court officials — then demanding immediate payment through Venmo, Cash App, Apple Pay, Bitcoin, or gift cards.

Here's what you need to know:

🚫 The Sheriff's office, jail, and court staff will NEVER call you to arrange bail payment.
🚫 No legitimate bail bond agency will demand payment through Venmo, Cash App, or gift cards. Ever.
🚫 In Minnesota, it's actually illegal for a bail bond agent to solicit you unless they've already spoken directly with the defendant or you have an existing relationship with that company.

If you get a call like this — STOP. Hang up. Look up the jail's official number independently and call to verify whether your loved one is actually in custody. Do not use any number the caller gives you.

These scammers are exploiting the worst moment a family can face. They know that panic makes people act fast without thinking. That's exactly what they're counting on.

If you've been targeted, contact your local law enforcement and your financial institution immediately.

Please share this — especially with elderly family members, who are the most frequently targeted.
