DRI is seeking to set up a new community aimed at the small firm practice. As part of that initiative a Small Firm SLG has been established and we are creating a virtual resource center that will reside on that community page. Our working group has identified three areas on which we will focus for the initial roll out of the resource center, namely: Law Practice Management, Technology and Emerging Issues. We are now preparing to build the content for these areas and are still actively looking for people who are interested in getting involved in this effort. We could use help in each of the three areas of focus and are open to additional ideas. So far, these are the folks who have volunteered on this project, as you can see its a group of dynamic folks and we would love to have you join us, as my mother says, many hands make light work!
