OBA's Opening Your Law Practice Program

I'll be spending the day tomorrow speaking to impressionable young lawyers, along with some more experienced lawyers. The Oklahoma Bar Association is putting on our free program Opening Your Law Practice in Tulsa, with the Oklahoma City session scheduled next week. We do one program in the spring and these two in the fall. (We renamed our New Lawyer Experience Program to this more accurate title as about 1/3rd of the attendees were veteran lawyers, retiring judges and the like.) You can read more about the program here and see the complete schedule here. To my fellow bar association executives, you really need to offer one of these programs if you do not. In these economic times, many young lawyers are opening a law office directly out of law school, whether they intended to or not. If you help them with this major challenge, they will not forget it in the future.
