 Barry Law Firm's Story Does your lawyer speak tech? Mikki Barry went to Georgetown University Law Center in 1988 because she and her husband were launching a company that wrote applications on the little known Macintosh computer, so that it could connect to that then unknown entity called the "Internet." Mikki had learned about this communications medium in 1982, marveling that she could send an email from Harvard to MIT. However, she felt that it would be important to actually have a "plan B" if this Internet thing didn't become popular.
At Georgetown, Mikki studied as much technology law as possible, and became the Editor in Chief of the Georgetown Journal of Law and Technology. In 1991, JOLT was discontinued because "there really isn't much need for a technology journal." Luckily, that type of thinking was not universal, and the small software company, InterCon Systems, became the market leader, holding 85% of the market, and employing 85 people. Mikki went to work there as its General Counsel. By 1995, with the growing popularity of the World Wide Web, larger players were moving into that space, and InterCon was sold to one of them.
