We often hear about the ever-changing world of technology and how it impacts the practice of law and legal compliance. This is also significantly affects what individuals are entering the law practice, as well as their interests, skills, and desired job opportunities. I recently talked with an aspiring in-house lawyer, Albert J. Higgins, who is about to graduate from the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University (ASU), which is ranked 25th by US News and World Report for best law schools and 22nd globally by the Academic Ranking of World Universities. Albert's interest is in legal analytics, a field that many of us do not understand or comprehend how it is useful in the practice of law. K: Albert, tell me a little about yourself and your background.
