FEBRUARY MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP MEETING AND LUNCHEON

THE END OF LAW FIRMS?
RETHINKING LEGAL SERVICES DELIVERY IN THE 21ST CENTURY

Sponsored by




Presented by


MARK LASSITER, ESQ.

CLE OFFERED*

In this thought-provoking CLE presentation, attorney Mark Lassiter presents his vision of how solo and small practice lawyers can change their legal services delivery models to become competitive with large national and international law firms. He argues that, if current legal trends continue unabated, the historic solo and small practice business law firms as we have known them may become extinct – with only the largest law firms surviving. He does NOT argue that lawyers will not practice together with each other in communities or associations. Rather, he argues that such associations will look different from the traditional law firms of the 20th Century, which still prevail (for now…). He predicts a day when future lawyers will collaborate and work together on legal matters in Cloud based, temporary ‘teams’– not based on law firm allegiances or employment, but rather on their own, specific expertise and skill sets. In other words, the ‘mission’ (not the ‘law firm’) will drive and determine the lawyers and staff recruited to a temporary legal team - allowing clients to ‘cherry pick’ the best, most qualified lawyers and legal staff for the clients’ unique legal matters - with all legal work tasks being monitored and controlled from secure, Cloud-based portals. Such arrangements will empower solo and small practice lawyers, ‘Soccer Mom’ and ‘Disabled Dad’ lawyers, and young, new lawyers as never before. If you are a new, small, solo or part-time lawyer you won’t want to miss hearing how the coming decades may actually be the best yet for attorneys like you. Come and watch this thought-provoking presentation from one of America’s emerging legal thought leaders.
