Cybersecurity breaches have become a question of when, not if they will happen. According to 2022 and 2023 cyber insurance reports, professional services firms account for the majority of claims. Furthermore, in today's world, hackers are continuously one step ahead of the good guys with new cyber-attacks coming out regularly. All of this means that, in addition to layers of security, you must have a good response plan. Join #DallasALA on September 18th for a special educational session and luncheon with Dustin Bolander, a cybersecurity and insurance expert, as we explore the anatomy of a breach. For more information and to register, please visit https://lnkd.in/gmS4bpXr. A special thank you to our Diamond Business Partner, Clear Guidance Partners, for facilitating this educational session, and to Jackson Walker LLP for graciously hosting us. Can’t attend in person? No worries! The event will be live-streamed. Register for the live stream at https://lnkd.in/gr6Ttpk5.

IT'S A GOOD TIME TO BE A PARALEGAL: The Supreme Court of Texas today issued preliminary rules allowing licensed paraprofessionals and court-access assistants to provide limited legal services that will help bridge the gap between the civil legal needs of low-income Texans and the resources currently available to fill those needs.
