GROWING YOUR PRACTICE
Putting Together a Practice that Works for You ; Session 1
Thursday, October 21, 2010 12:30 - 2:00pm

As you develop a practice, you always want clients who can pay for services, have interesting legal questions and refer additional business to you. How do you determine the characteristics of these "best" clients and then find more like them? What do you do with clients you don’t want that you have acquired as you build your practice?

This informative session will help you build a rewarding and successful practice.
