    Application Qn

    Hey guys so the qn is: An issue impacting the legal profession- how and why I'm quite concerned that my answer speaks more about how cybersecurity affects law firms rather than the legal profession- but I'm not sure if that's just me over thinking it. Would appreciate any feedback! As a...
