In a recent lunch and learn presentation, we discussed the legal and technological issues involved in online reputation monitoring, management, and repair. While use of the internet and social media has been a great way to reach more people through little to no cost, it is also a vehicle for some misguided folks to attempt to ruin reputations, steal identities, and wreak havoc in one’s personal and professional life. The best way to counter this behavior is to be informed of what others are saying about you online, and take the appropriate action to correct any damaging content. Learn how you can be proactive about monitoring your online reputation and repairing any negative information about you and your company.

Setting up a law office as a solo attorney can be financially taxing, or it can be easy and cost effective. It all depends on how you do it. Most solo attorneys dream of having flexible schedules, their choice of clients, all the profits, and all the decision making power. With that comes all the responsibility, the cost of setup and maintenance of the firm, the marketing, bill collection, office management, etc. To hire out all those functions and still make a profit would be too taxing for the solo law firm. However, companies like ProLegal take the financial sting out of setting up a solo practice.
