by Traverse Legal, reviewed by Enrico Schaefer - August 12, 2009 - 'The Greatest' Philosophy
Law firms take different approaches to Internet access by their lawyers and staff. Some law firms block certain sites. Many law firms track Internet activity by their staff. All law firms battle the distractions that come with the World Wide Web.
To me, the best way to ensure continued productivity is to keep everyone motivated. The Internet provides a convenient and appropriate respite from the sometimes taxing work that law firms do. So instead of trying to monitor or limit employees' activities, law firms should simply spend more time managing projects, tasks and motivation.
