Ed. note: This is a message from Dan Lear of Avvo, who is leading a workshop on navigating the world of online legal marketplaces at the upcoming ATL APP conference in Philadelphia on October 28. Dan will joined by Chad Burton of CuroLegal.
Lawyers! First, the bad news: the internet exists. Now, the good news: like the Force, the internet can be used for both good and bad. In this session, we’ll talk about how solo and small firm practitioners can, relatively inexpensively, use the internet to build and grow successful legal practices, even in a field of big, nimble competitors. Come as an internet neophyte, or even an internet skeptic. Leave a convert. Yes, you are competing with LegalZoom. No, it doesn’t spell the end of lawyers.
Dan and Chad’s workshop is but one piece of APP’s full day of content aimed at helping you optimize (or start) a small firm practice. See our full agenda here. There is still time to register. We hope to see you later this month in Philly!
