In this article, Andrew Pearce, Editor of The Houston Lawyer Magazine, opens with Justice Busby’s insights on advocacy, reminding us that the most effective legal arguments are those that aim to clarify, not condemn.

With contributions from a diverse group of authors, this issue explores the legal community’s response to digital threats. It offers perspectives on the growing prevalence of cybercrime, best practices for lawyers and their clients, and the tools criminals use to exploit online vulnerabilities. It also addresses the unique cybersecurity needs of smaller firms and unpacks the implications of new legislation, including the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act.

Through this collection of timely and practical insights, Pearce invites readers to consider how law and technology intersect and how the legal profession can continue to adapt, protect, and serve in a digital world.
