Legal leaders everywhere are grappling with the same challenges but don’t often get the chance or the space to step back, ask questions, swap stories, and share what’s actually working. After hosting events in New Zealand, Australia, Austin, London, and Boston, we finally made it to Melbourne, a city we’ve been wanting to bring File Notes Live to for years.

Legal leaders everywhere wrestle with the same set of challenges: navigating big technology decisions, keeping their people supported through change, and building firms that can scale without burning everyone out. Following events across New Zealand, Australia, Austin, London, and Boston, we finally made it back home, hosting our first-ever File Notes Live in Christchurch.

Our first-ever File Notes Live event in London brought together an incredible group of forward-thinking legal professionals to discuss how technology can help firms grow (without burning out their teams along the way).

Law firm leaders everywhere wrestle with the same issues: too much on their plate, too many tools to choose from, and not enough time to work on their business, rather than practising in it. Getting the chance to step back, ask questions, swap stories, and share what’s actually working is what brought a group of forward‑thinking legal professionals together for our latest in-person File Notes Live event in Boston.

Many law firms face the same challenges, but often lack opportunities to connect with similar firms, swap stories, ask tough questions, and share what's actually working. That’s what we saw recently in Brisbane, when we hosted our File Notes Live dinner at Rothwells. We brought together law firm leaders, operations managers, and tech partners to dig into some of the most complex challenges facing the legal industry right now. No stage. No sales pitches. Just a curious, ambitious group of people sharing what’s actually working in their firms.

Many law firms face similar challenges, but often lack opportunities to connect with like-minded firms, swap stories, ask tough questions, and share what’s actually working. Last week, we flew over to the Gold Coast to host a special File Notes Live dinner with 15 law firm leaders to do exactly that.

Plenty of law firms are facing the same challenges, but don’t have a community of similar firms to swap stories, ask tough questions, and share what’s actually working. That’s why at our latest File Notes Live event in Auckland last week, we brought together a small group of law firm leaders to do exactly that.

At LEX Summit 2024, the message was clear: for personal injury attorneys, success begins with the first call. How you manage that initial client interaction can make all the difference in securing trust and building lasting relationships.

At ALPMA 2024, it became clear that law firms are in a critical phase of selecting or switching practice management systems (PMS). Firms are moving away from legacy systems, prioritizing cloud-based solutions for better accessibility, integration, and scalability. For some, it’s a switch from on-premise systems to cloud-based options. For others, it’s upgrading from one cloud platform to another as firms search for better automation, AI capabilities, and integrations like VXT.

Ever wondered what happens when you mix the intensity of hot sauce with legal tech? Wonder no more! In the first-ever Smokeball Showdown video, VXT battles Smokeball head-on. If you’re a fan of both fiery challenges and legal tech innovations, you’re in for a treat.

We will be shutting down VXT voicemail on April 1, 2026. We truly appreciate the support from those of you who were here from the start, so we have put together our recommendations for how you can continue to transcribe your voicemails.
