Avoid becoming a victim by learning about these ploys and by using a tech tool that too many people do not know about (or use if they do know). In this episode, you'll learn about six excellent recommendations the AARP believes can protect people online. And learn more about the one that's most beneficial for everyone who uses the Internet via computer, tablet device, or smartphone.

In this episode, you will hear:

Technology in efficient law practices

The benefits of implementing a consultation fee
Using the 80/20 principle to leverage your practice
