Attorney Douglas Silverstein Quoted in the Los Angeles Business Journal
Many law firms and attorneys face unique challenges due to the spread of COVID-19. As efforts to control the spread of COVID-19 are underway, many attorneys cannot conduct legal proceedings in a courtroom. Here in Los Angeles, civil proceedings are not set to resume in courts until next year. Legal proceedings, such as trials or arbitration, are taking place online. Attorneys must learn to adapt or be left behind.
