# "Using LibreOffice and other Free software for documents as a lawyer"

I was asked recently about how I get on using LibreOffice for document-related legal work, and I promised to write down some thoughts.

The short answer is that I use a mix of LibreOffice and other FOSS tools, and I’m very positive about it, with no particular concerns.

If you have questions, please do ask!

A few years ago, I was laughing at people who tried to run LibreOffice on their phones. Today, I'm doing the same foolish thing — and it works! I'll be giving a presentation about mobile Linux, from mobile Linux.
