Judge Stephen Dillard, the "Twitter Laureate of Georgia" and Presiding Judge of the Georgia Court of Appeals, shares how he leverages social media to bring transparency to his role at the court, and explains how lawyers can use social media effectively to virtually mentor law students and to educate the public on the practice of law. We also discuss Judge Dillard's more "global" view of complex litigation and how a potential appeal can help lawyers win better settlements and more secure judgments at trial.
