Solo and Small Firm Practice Committee

Illustration: Sole practitionersWelcome to the Solo and Small Firm Practice Committee's Home Page! It's not easy being a solo practitioner or a small-office attorney in today's competitive legal marketplace, and our goal is to provide you with a variety of resources which we believe will make your professional and personal life a little easier.

In addition to pointing out the wealth of resources currently available to attorneys like yourself on the Internet, we'll keep you up-to-date with committee documents for your review. We've also included the committee roster so you can contact us with your suggestions, gripes and, well, stories from the front lines!

Marketing Tip of the Month:

Phasing the Billing Process. If you send out a large number of bills each month, consider billing a portion of those bills each week. The easy way to divide the bills is alphabetically. By billing a segment of your accounts each week, you should see a leveling out of the cash flow. This will reduce the periods of feast or famine. - November 2008
