Mostly, I loved your friend’s vibe. That thrill of being part of creating something that never existed and not knowing how it will land.
The takeaway is that what is happening seems fundamentally different than other innovation iterations like outsourcing to India or e discovery vendors which reinforced rather than disrupted how biglaw works. Maybe a little like Axiom except that’s not a law firm. I think these innovations have legs /staying power and I didn’t really think that before. (That said, I like that you don’t overhype these things).

They got a good one!
This was such a good episode. I have a good friend from college who recently started at Norm and it’s so interesting to see.
Wow serious praise! Any major epiphanies or takeaways?
