I spoke with Mike Barry, the senior vice president of research and development for Aderant, one of the largest software providers in the legal industry.

We discussed key challenges that he expects clients to face in 2013, including lingering pressure from the financial crisis, increasing interest in alternative fees, and the disruptive force of innovative technology. Barry predicts a rise in use of time capture tools, business intelligence programs, mobility products, and legal project management leading to a cultural revolution in law firms.
