Milwaukee conference Nov. 16-17
Solo, Small Firm & Technology Conference Promises to Keep Your
Practice on Track
National, regional, and local experts on substantive law, law
practice management, and legal technology will be the featured
presenters, Nov. 16-17, at the first Wisconsin Solo, Small
Firm & Technology Conference, to be held at the Wyndham Hotel,
Milwaukee. Themed "There Is a Better Way," and running from 8 a.m.
Thursday to 1 p.m. Friday, the conference offers two plenary sessions,
"25-plus Technology and Practice Management Predictions for Small Firms"
and "60 Hot Legal, PC, Ethics and Practice Management Tips, Gadgets, and
Web Sites in 90 Minutes," and five topical tracks with more than 25
educational sessions covering substantive law, best practices,
technology, the business of law, and quality of life.
This comprehensive conference for all legal professionals is a joint
effort by the State Bar and the Milwaukee Bar Association and expands
the Milwaukee Bar's successful Law & Technology conference. "While
this conference targets the solo and small firm practitioner," says
Nerino Petro, State Bar Law Office Management Program advisor, "there is
something here to benefit staff, legal administrators, and IT personnel.
This will be a conference that encompasses areas of interest to all
legal professionals including technology, and it shouldn't be
missed."
Tuition is $199 for lawyers and $99 for judges and nonlawyers, and is
free to law students. Register before Oct. 16 and receive a $30
discount. The program will be submitted for up to 10 Wisconsin,
Illinois, and Minnesota CLE credits and up to 4 EPR credits.
