Are you an attorney looking for some help<br \/>\nunderstanding technical issues in lawsuits?  EFF is setting<br \/>\nup a listserv to help connect technologists to attorneys<br \/>\non cases that are core to EFF&#8217;s mission but beyond what<br \/>\nwe can handle in-house.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eff.org\">EFF<\/a> has connected hundreds of tech-savvy<br \/>\nlawyers with potential clients through our Cooperating<br \/>\nAttorneys listserv.  This has worked so well, we thought<br \/>\nwe&#8217;d provide the same service for those who need<br \/>\ntechnical assistance on litigation and civil liberties<br \/>\nissues.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s how the Cooperating Techs list will work:  Attorneys<br \/>\nneeding technical assistance on cases will contact us and<br \/>\nlet us know what kind of help they need and whether they<br \/>\ncan pay.  After we receive the request and determine if<br \/>\nit is appropriate for our list, we&#8217;ll post a note to the<br \/>\nlist with a basic description of the project.  (For example:<br \/>\n&#8220;CA attorney needs a tech familiar with Microsoft<br \/>\nExchange servers to assist in recovering allegedly deleted<br \/>\nemail messages needed for lawsuit.  Can pay reduced fee.&#8221;)<br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re on the list and are qualified and interested,<br \/>\nyou contact us, and we&#8217;ll connect you to the attorney.<br \/>\nThat&#8217;s it.  EFF won&#8217;t investigate or vouch for either<br \/>\nside &#8211; we don&#8217;t have those kinds of resources.  We&#8217;ll<\/p>\n<p>simply provide the connection.<\/p>\n<p>Interested in being an Cooperating Tech?  Send a note<br \/>\nto cooptechs@eff.org with your: name, email address, and<br \/>\nthe city\/state in which you reside, and we&#8217;ll add you<br \/>\nto the list.  If you&#8217;re an attorney facing a tech civil<br \/>\nliberties issue and could use some technical help, send<br \/>\na note to techhelp@eff.org, and we&#8217;ll try to help you<br \/>\nfind someone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Service Will Connect Technologists with Civil Liberties Cases Are you a technologist interested in helping out on civil liberties cases?
