Noting that the “investments made by outgoing managing partner Deborah Read have made a real difference to the firm’s clients,” the article features commentary from Thompson Hine’s incoming managing partner, Tony White, who said he would be working closely with clients to identify and implement areas where it can be deployed to increase efficiencies. “The things that law firms do that are not at the core of legal advice, those are at risk from non-law firms equipped with technology,” he said.
