The Law and Practice Update is coming up on November 1 and 2 at River Cree Resort and Casino, and there are three main reasons why solo and small firm practitioners should plan to attend:
1. To get updates in other practice areas
2. Gain knowledge of new technology
3. Network with other practitioners
Those are the main reasons that Marc Delacruz of Delacruz Law Office in Grande Prairie and William Zadworny of William N.B. Zadworny Barrister and Solicitor have attended past Law and Practice Updates and are looking forward to this year’s conference.
Get Updates
“I really appreciate the updates on various areas of law. Even though I primarily practice in family law, and I am in the process of developing an immigration practice, it is still important to hear about new issues going on in other practice areas to stay in the loop,” says Marc Delacruz. “I’m really looking forward to the business practice tips dealing with technology in the office, buying/selling/merging a practice, and disaster planning.”
Immediate Benefits
This will be William Zadworny’s third Law and Practice Update, which he thinks of as an annual refresher. He also finds the technology component “superb” as it gave him much better understanding of the computer systems he uses.
Last year William had an immediate benefit on one of his files right after the Law and Practice Update.
“The civil procedure segment of Law and Practice Update dealt with changes to the drop dead rule (e,g,delay in implementation). That up-to-date research and presentation caused my client to settle a matter in their favor in early 2013.”
Both Marc and William believe that any solo or small firm practitioner would benefit from attending the Law and Practice Update.
“The material covers a wide variety of topics, and it’s also a great networking opportunity. If you have questions relating to your solo or small firm practice that aren’t addressed by the speakers, then this seminar is probably your best opportunity to get answers face-to-face with other fellow solo/small firm practitioners!”
William agrees: “Solo and small firm lawyers who are not attending this seminar are missing out, and that’s unfortunate.”
