It's no secret that the business of practicing law has changed—and continues to change—in ways that are both subtle and dramatic. We've covered that transformation over the years in these pages: technology-driven efficiencies, niche practices developed around social change, new challenges to the profession dictated by both gut-wrenching recession and fundamental industrial change. But while our reporting on this metamorphosis has been solid, even at times prophetic, it's been based in great part on the tools of journalism: anecdote, instinct and the oft-competing wisdom of any experts we can find.

With this issue, however, the ABA Journal is offering our readers a new—and we believe different—view of the business and the profession. We've teamed up with a nationally recognized expert on trends in the legal profession, William D. Henderson of the Center on the Global Legal Profession at Indiana University's Maurer School of Law.

Online File Delivery | Secure File Storage and File Sharing Since 1999 | My Docs Online. Website: Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati - Term Sheet Generator. This tool will generate a venture financing term sheet based on your responses to an online questionnaire. It also has an informational component, with basic tutorials and annotations on financing terms. This term sheet generator is a modified version of a tool that we use internally, which comprises one part of a suite of document automation tools that we use to generate start-up and venture-financing-related documents. Because it has been designed as a generic tool that takes into account a number of options, this version of the term sheet generator is fairly expansive and includes significantly more detail than would likely be found in a customized application.

Please direct any general questions regarding the term sheet generator to Tony Kikuta (akikuta@wsgr.com) or Yokum Taku (ytaku@wsgr.com) at (650) 493-9300.
