Chuck Newton: The Third Wave

Link: Chuck Newton: The Third Wave. I have been meaning to highlight Chuck Newton and his entertaining web site about "Third Wave Lawyering" for some time. Chuck is using technology to follow the path of a home based lawyer, without traditional trappings of law office success. I haven't been assimilated completely (I still have an office and a secretary and a waiting room); but, Chuck's adoption of his interpretation of how lawyers can create their own Toffler "Third Wave Law Offices" is wonderful. Computers and technology have certainly given me freedom from BigLaw and all the trappings of the large law firm. Chuck, and my friend, Grant Griffiths, Home Office Lawyer , are walking the walk, and talking the talk. This post by Chuck is long, but take the time to read it through, and then reflect on it. Are you living your life and practicing law when you want to? Or, are you practicing law, and living your life in small interstitial spaces of time that get smaller and smaller?

Chuck’s blog is wonderful and his take on the home office, carpet commuting and third wave is refreshing. He certainly puts an interesting light on the subject and EVERY lawyer should read his blog.
