She can\u2019t go running or hiking with daddy due to her knees, and as a nine year old lady (yes, middle-aged with dodgy joints &#8211; I can sympathise!) who spent almost her entire life in a shelter, she is not a playful puppy.

Even after long evaluations, trials and significant financial investment, many tech-enabled solutions in law firms never really take off.<\/p>\n<h4>The Problem<\/h4>\n<p>Over the years, I&#8217;ve been astounded at the lack of adoption within law firms. Even if you successfully get through the complex approval process and make the sale, there\u2019s a good chance the party stops there and everyone just goes back to doing things the way they always have. This impacts clients, frustrates younger generations of lawyers, wastes partner money, and impacts providers because no adoption means no renewals.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;\">&#8220;This impacts clients, frustrates younger generations of lawyers, wastes partner money, and impacts providers because no adoption means no renewals.&#8221;<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Back in the day, I would often meet lawyers at conferences and would be having a lovely chat about my company\u2019s solutions and the benefits they could bring. Many times people would gaze wistfully into the middle distance and say &#8220;that sounds fantastic &#8211; I wish we had something like that at my firm&#8221; and I would say &#8220;You do! You are already our client!&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Of course I would follow up and discover that the solution had never been rolled out. Or everyone was given a user name and password, but no training. No explanation of the benefits, the efficiency, the risk reduction, the potential to offer a better service to clients at a more competitive rate&#8230;<\/p>\n<h4>The Questions That Need Answering To Find A Solution<\/h4>\n<p>Naturally any change, any new solution will have some champions and enthusiastic adopters, a broad middle (yep got one of those to go along with the dodgy joints) and a few die hard \u2018you will take my quill pen out of my cold dead hands&#8217; types. But this does not explain the vast swathe of potential users who either don\u2019t even know what they have or don\u2019t know how to use it. How and why does this happen? I know it drives Knowledge Managers and CIOs up the wall. So what happens between purchase and adoption? Is everyone just too busy for training? What are we missing?<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_28138\"  class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-28138 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/close-up-document-fountain-pen-48148-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/close-up-document-fountain-pen-48148-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/close-up-document-fountain-pen-48148-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/close-up-document-fountain-pen-48148-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/close-up-document-fountain-pen-48148-640x426.jpg 640w, https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/close-up-document-fountain-pen-48148-1200x798.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/zegal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/close-up-document-fountain-pen-48148-1920x1277.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 639px) 98vw, (max-width: 1199px) 64vw, 770px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nice pen but ever heard of <a href=\"https:\/\/zegal.com\/blog\/post\/e-signing-works-dragon-law\/\">e-signing<\/a>?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Do old habits die hard and partners would just rather send the new kids up to the High Court library for a day to photocopy a few cases, highlight the fun parts in yellow and leave a stack of papers (aka a \u2018research report\u2019) on their desk?
