Director of Legal @ Malbek | Legal Tech Author and Commentator | Fastcase 50 2022 Honoree | Legal Tech Startup Advisor and Investor

I help legal professionals, legal teams, and technology organizations make sense of legal technology so they can work smarter, deliver stronger outcomes, and lead with confidence in a field that is often noisy, fragmented, and misunderstood.

As General Counsel of Malbek and a long-time educator, author, and advocate, I sit at the intersection of law, technology, and learning. My work centers on translation. I take complex, fast-moving technologies and turn them into clear concepts, practical strategies, and informed decisions that legal professionals can actually use. Whether guiding teams through digital transformation or shaping how legal products are built and adopted, my focus is always on clarity over hype.

Teaching is core to how I operate. I regularly speak to diverse audiences, from military organizations to law firms and in-house legal departments, as well as large professional groups, on AI’s impact on legal work and the responsible, effective use of technology. Across these settings, my goal is the same: to help people understand not just what tools do, but how they change legal work, roles, and judgment.

That same educational mission runs through my writing and publishing. I am the author of The Legal Tech Ecosystem, a foundational guide to understanding the industry and its players, a co-author of CLM for Dummies, and the editor of the Handbook of Legal Tech. I also write regularly, serve as a columnist for Today’s General Counsel, and contribute through podcasts, webinars, and industry forums. Each platform is another way to make legal tech more accessible, grounded, and actionable.

Across every role, my aim is to equip people with the knowledge and confidence to engage with innovation thoughtfully and critically. If you are trying to cut through the legal tech noise, educate your team, modernize how your legal function operates, or build tools that truly serve legal professionals, I help move you from uncertainty to understanding and from learning to execution.

Let’s build what comes next.

MENTAL FITNESS COACH FOR HIGH PERFORMANCE -Lawyers: Feeling overwhelmed and burned out? Become Mental Powerhouse and Dominate Your Demanding Law Practice

You’ve built a successful law career. 

So why does it still feel this hard?

I was in my mid fifties. 
For two years, I struggled with weakness and burnout. 

I believed what many Boomers silently accept: 
Maybe the best years are behind me.

I felt exhausted. 

My health collapsed. 

I had surgery. 

I nearly died.

I asked myself, 
"Is it time to step back? Retire? Fade out? Is the best of my life over?"

But something in me refused to settle.

One day as I weakly hobbled out of my doctor's office, I made a decision. 
I put an imaginary stake in the ground.

I declared, 
"The rest of my life would be the best of my life."

I changed how I lived: what I ate, how I moved, how I worked. 

I became a vegetarian. 

Started daily Pilates. 
Focused on restoring my energy, my strength, and my vision.

I focused on mental clarity, reduced stressful activities, and spent my time building a business I love. 
I stopped being a worker bee.
I came back stronger.

In my seventies, 
I launched two businesses and wrote a third book. 

Today, at 76, I run four. 
I lead a team of seven.

I’m engaged, I travel, I’m healthy, 
and I’m creating more wealth and impact than I ever imagined in my fifties.

Not because I work more. 

But because I finally stopped working the old way.

And that’s what I help lawyers do.

After 30+ years coaching attorneys, partners, firm owners, seasoned professionals.
I’ve seen the pattern repeat.

You’ve put in the hours. 
Built the reputation. 
Hit the milestones.

But behind the scenes, it’s chaos.
You’re overcommitted, under supported, and living in reaction mode.

Your health is slipping, your schedule is relentless, and your life? 
It’s been on hold for years.

Maybe you’re wondering: 
“Is this as good as it gets?”

I created the Pinnacle Lawyer Mastermind for lawyers who are done grinding and ready to reinvent.

Not with fluff.

With strategy, structure, and a new playbook built on your most valuable asset: wisdom.

The lawyers I work with don’t want to retire. 
They want to thrive.
They want time back. 
Energy back. 
Money flowing. 
And clarity about what comes next.

If that’s you, let’s talk.

The next chapter of your life and law practice doesn’t have to look like the last one.
It can be lighter. 
Smarter. 
More profitable. 
More alive.

You didn’t come this far to stall out.
