This is a newsletter about my commentary on the legal ecosystem and musings about career pivots and alternative careers for lawyers. A little bit about me: I graduated from law school, but left the practice of law to sell software to law firms and legal departments. Somewhere along the way I built an audience on social media made up of 250,000+ lawyers and legal professionals. I’m currently a senior executive at an alternative legal services provider called Latitude Legal.
Reviews From My Readers:
“I've been reading the usual suspects serving the legal marketplace for a lot of years. With most, it's like going to the dentist. You don't want to but you make yourself do it. Alex's weekly posting is something I actually look forward to. There's a point of view, which I share, and a healthy skepticism without beating you over the head with it.” - CEO, Legal Marketplace Company
“Alex writes thoughtful stuff aimed at early and mid-career lawyers - but it also offers insights which 'seasoned veterans' (like me) can learn lots from. His experience working in law firms + in-house with legal tech has provided him with lots of material to draw upon - and he's just a good story-teller. Sign up, and find out for yourself! “- Law Firm Partner
“Alex's ‘Off the Record’ newsletter is a must-read for anyone who is interested in: (1) contemporary and popular legal topics, (2) navigating life as a law firm associate, (3) CLM (Ironclad in particular), (4) general career insights, and/or (5) the intersection of law and humor, which usually results in great memes. I subscribe for a number of reasons I've listed above, and I enjoy each and every one. Alex is wise beyond his years. Thanks Alex!” - Head of Legal, Tech Company
“Alex has a unique ability to uncover the unspoken truths of a career in law. What it taught him about the practice of law and about himself - which we can all learn from - makes Off The Record a valuable read.” -CEO, Legal Tech Company
