Running a solo or small firm means being the whole firm. The legal work, the client development, and all the business in between. The Small Law Firm & Solo Center is what the City Bar built for exactly that: affordable workspace and a virtual office in midtown Manhattan, CLE to stay sharp — in person or without leaving your desk — and a community of peers building practices like yours, so you’re never doing it alone. It’s a professional home for solo and small-firm attorneys, with the resources of a large office without the overhead.
You can also apply to join the Legal Referral Service (LRS) for a source of new client referrals. LRS is open to attorneys with 2+ years of experience and a New York City metropolitan area office, with a panel membership fee discount for City Bar members.
