Introduction the beginning of the end -- The path to commoditization -- Trends in technology -- Disruptive legal technologies -- The future for in-house lawyers -- Resolving and avoiding disputes -- Access to law and to justice -- Conclusion the future of lawyers.

Argues that the market is increasingly unlikely to tolerate expensive lawyers for tasks (guiding, advising, drafting, researching, problem-solving, and more) that can equally or better be discharged, directly or indirectly, by smart systems and processes. It follows, the book claims, that the jobs of many traditional lawyers will be substantially eroded and often eliminated. Two forces propel the legal profession towards this scenario: a market pull towards commoditization and a pervasive development and uptake of information technology. At the same time, the book foresees new law jobs emerging which may be highly rewarding, even if very different from those of today.
