2004-2005 ABA Legal Technology Survey Report
The 2004-2005 ABA Legal Technology Survey Report has been released. This bi-annual survey is divided into 5 parts: Law Office Technology, Litigation and Courtroom Technology, Web and Communication Technology, Online Research and Mobile Lawyers. The entire survey costs a whopping $2,000 but ABA members can download trend reports for each of the 5 sections for free.
Some interesting, and fairly predictable, data from the online research portion of the survey includes the following:
- 45% start online research with fee-based online resource
- 73% use free online resources for legal research
- 68% reported using print materials more often than any other format
- Only 50% of attorneys younger than 40 used print regularly
- Use of CD-ROMs continued to decline with only 18% using them regularly
