Woodstock for Legal: 6 LexisNexis Legal Tech Webinars in August

Woodstock was first held in August 1969.  It yielded more than 30 performances to some 400,000 people and some say it changed the culture.

The LexisNexis lineup of software and technology webinars for August probably won’t be anything like Woodstock.  Not even close.

However, these webinars are intended to help customers to get more value and become rock stars with the products they’ve purchased and might help shift the legal technology culture.  These are often recorded, so you can sign up today and then watch them later at a more convenient time.

Here’s a look at the webinars to be held this month:
