We are thrilled to announce that we won second place overall AND the Audience Favorite prize at the @DukeLawTech Demo Day 2018. What an honor! We have learned so much from this experience and our fellow participants. #legaltech #constructiontech #AccesstoJustice

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

@DukeLawTech For many reasons, now is the time to raise up ideas and tools focused on #accesstojustice. We are so grateful for the remarkable individuals we met through the Tech Lab. And for the (excellent) crash course in tech startup. Don't be shy! Send in that application!

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

Start-up friends. You have a few days left to apply for the Duke Law Tech Lab. Our participation had such a big impact on our business and also on our understanding of #legaltech and #accesstojustice You have nothing to lose by applying and trying!

[Duke Center on Law & Tech @DukeLawTech]

CLOSING SOON! The world needs your innovations for access to justice. Get your application in this weekend.

@inspiredcat The most confident opinions I have formed have come from reading 3-5 national articles on the same topic. Then trusting my b%sh%% meter.

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

@inspiredcat I start every day with NPR and Reuters. Then local charts (TN DeptofHealth, Tennessean). Then Johns Hopkins, NYT, and Flourish for graphics. For law-related I go to FB groups: Girl Attorney TN and Mothers Esquire. My strategy is to grab lots of information and then synthesize.

@inspiredcat Fascinating national state by state case study. PA closes liquor stores the same day GA allows home delivery of beer and wine. As of 15 min ago Nashville Beer Board approves beer delivery.

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

@KevinOConnorTOH We know folks who say: “Don’t you paint that naughty pine!” A sign of 60s middle class and a well-built house. We painted over ours (it took forever). Hanging is like wall-to-wall studs. But it’s solid and classic. My guess: it will make a comeback like all mid-Century modern.

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

Can any of my #legaltech friends make suggestions?

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

Spring has arrived in Middle Tennessee! Hope you are enjoying your deck, and if you built it, hope you got paid in full! Let @smartlien_app help you preserve your #constructionpayment rights. #constructiontech #legaltech #accesstojustice

Local #construction workers have been targeted and robbed at gunpoint. Thanks to ⁦@MNPDNashville⁩ for your action. https://t.co/x1NAMJeASd

@RayNaCorp @maryjuetten @lbridgesmith @inspiredcat @tallwalking @SimonBoehme @hellodivorce @ZaviehLaw @kbennettlaw @EHGLawFirm @tim_baran @IvyBGrey @JessBirken @imokx Also—could innovative fee sharing lead to innovative partnerships like shared or on-site childcare?

@RayNaCorp @mymodernlaw @freshstartott @ZaviehLaw @lbridgesmith @inspiredcat @tallwalking @SimonBoehme @hellodivorce @kbennettlaw @EHGLawFirm @tim_baran @IvyBGrey @JessBirken @imokx Local CEO @ssdeutschmann advises employee happiness over client needs. “The good clients will follow.” If ees own the biz and share in fees they have powerful financial and prof dev incentive! The biz can also recruit the best people.

#AI folks will enjoy this. I loved the recent post about the ancient history of automatons.

[Brian Merchant @bcmerchant]

I am very excited to be launching my next project today with @Gizmodo: Automaton, an ongoing investigation into the many ways AI & automation are changing the human landscape https://t.co/i2GlCGjoTm

#legaltech folks: my friend Suezette Robotham shared this article via LinkedIn and I was fascinated. Can #AI improve #diversity in hiring? One thought was tying the algorithms to existing EEOC guidelines. Anyone working on this? https://t.co/yG1QghLcnH

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

Thanks for the shout out @RayNaCorp ! Any list curated by @bobambrogi is one we’d love to be a part of. #legaltech #constructiontech

[Elizabeth McMillan—Smart Lien @smartlien_app]

What a great event. Miss seeing these folks IRL! @hellodivorce @disputly @wsurferesq @getcivicpro
