Like so many other professions, law is becoming increasingly influenced by an overwhelming amount of disparate, fragmented and complex data that can both help and hinder business. Data comes from a wealth of different sources, both internal and external, constantly changing, never still. Keeping control of all that data is one challenge; leveraging it to the greater good much harder. Despite the huge amount of data in the average law firm, data-driven decision-making is relatively new and uncharted. With the hugely disruptive changes that have occurred in our ways of working over the last two years, the issue of data is now front and centre. This second edition of Building the Data-Driven Law Firm looks at how the use of data has become inextricably linked with the practice of law; how it can be utilized to the good, and the safeguards that must be put in place to mitigate the bad; how Big Data will revolutionize the way lawyers work, and the cases they will work on; and how new uses for data (including blockchain and the Internet of Things) will influence the law firm of the future. Bringing the book bang up to date, new content features how we can keep data secure in the changing world of work, how data can be used for business development and client satisfaction, the implications of data bias and data theft, and whether the way we use data is even useful anymore.
The full French text is accompanied by vocabulary explanations. Notes and a detailed introduction in English put the work in its social and historical context.

Something is amiss in the kingdom of Lorenth. During one of the expansion missions, the humans determine they are no longer alone in the world as they once thought. In fact, the men are viciously attacked by the elves of IlluDar. Sentient, magically adept dragons, dwarves, elemental races, treants, dryads, sprites, ice elves, and woodland elves compose the fae races that for generations have lived in a silent pact with the humans, never revealing their presence until the humans breached their borders. Meanwhile, a restless and vile taint seeks a vessel to dominate-a living corruption spawned from the conflict between the three imprisoned deities: Sarik, Ethoni, and Deimar. This taint finds such a vessel in Seneschal Dean-second in command of the human armies of Lorenth, led by the noble priest-king, Arimas. Age-old prophecies entwine around events leading to the beginning of the time of silence-the time when the Tear of Deimar made its call, searching for the promised Lightbringer who must eventually stand to face the Seed of Corruption and right the balance of Caliyon for good. An unlikely combination of warriors unites to defeat the mysterious threat.

The human race finds itself oppressed by the former Lorenthian seneschal as his powers grow into the realm of necromancy. Skeletal hordes, soul bound revenants, ghasts, wights, and even bone dragons heed the call of the soul stealer as his minions strike fear into the hearts of human and fae alike. Even hope becomes threatened as the fae races remain indecisive about how to act in response to the prophecies of old. Yet hope is not lost... the infant Lightbringer must live to stand against the evil that rages across the land, even as the balance of creation begins to shift. Some of the fae have chosen to indulge themselves in the human emotions of hope as the light of prophecy begins to illuminate the answer to the dilemma of the soul stealer. Yet is this new enlightenment really the only course of action left to the living races of Caliyon? Some fear the cost of victory may be too high a price to pay...
