Three Benefits of Legal eBooks You Might Not Have Considered

Research shows that the majority of today’s attorneys regularly access legal content from locations other than their offices – whether that is from home, while commuting, or while traveling, not to mention the obvious necessity to reference legal content on demand in the courtroom.

Given that, eBooks may seem like a natural fit for most busy, mobile lawyers. In some organizations, however, eBook adoption by legal professionals is not prevalent. Even those who recognize the potential benefits of using eBooks may be slow to embrace them. For those who are considering adopting eBooks but are not yet convinced, we offer three potential eBook benefits that you may not have considered.
