surprised they didn’t invite Legal to the Coldplay concert

The people who dominate the conversation often have the least to say. Being the loudest voice in the room doesn’t gain respect. It crowds out the contributions of those who speak at a lower volume. It’s better to leave people wanting to hear more than wishing they’d heard less.

Just got yet another cold outreach email asking if I want to be featured as "Legal Influencer of the Year" for the bargain price of $1,500. Hard pass. (And the year is far from being over...)

There's literally a crime called "uttering and publishing" which sounds like what happens when you accidentally hit send on a half-finished email and then immediately follow up with one saying, "Sorry, sent too early!"

There's literally a crime called "misprision of felony" which sounds like what happens when you accidentally witness your neighbor doing something sketchy but then spend three weeks overthinking whether you should say something and eventually just pretend you never saw it.

The year is 2025. I am editing a document titled MSA _w_SLA (V24 7.16)(V3)_FINAL-FINA (7.22). I am moments away from circulating for signatures. Before clicking send, opposing counsel responds that they want to re-visit the indemnity cap. I sigh, "FINAL-FINAL_FINAL, it is."

"Contract_FINAL_v2_REVISED_FINAL_USE_THIS_ONE.docx" with 47 tracked changes and a note that says "per our conversation." In the document wars, there are only survivors who accept "final" is a state of mind.

Apparently there is a crime called "criminal conversation" which sounds like it should be the charge for when you ask your coworker "how was your weekend" and they respond with 20 minute monologue about their ex's new boyfriend.

Legal realizing that the contract they’re supposed to review already has a signature

Update: They're now offering a "bundle deal".... for $2,500 I can be both Legal Influencer of the Year AND get a commemorative plaque that definitely won't end up propping open my office door...

"Contract_FINAL_LOCKED_DO_NOT_EDIT_v14.docx" sitting right next to "Contract_FINAL_LOCKED_DO_NOT_EDIT_v14_updated.docx" in the system. At this point, adding "FINAL" to a filename is basically corporate gaslighting. We all know you're lying. You know we know.

I have learned that, in an undisclosed deal, payroll company Paychex has acquired #LegalTech company SixFifty for an amount said to be between $70-$85M. Read more at LawSites. lawnext.com/2025/07/in-und…
