Spring has sprung! This time of year, it’s always fun to see flower buds popping out of the wet earth and bright green leaves unfurling from bare trees. What a perfect time to think about beginning a new venture, or getting your personal estate planning ducks in a row. We’re happy and ready to help!
At the end of last month, our office team gathered for a delicious Italian dinner at Cantinetta in Wallingford. Because we are a virtual firm, we do not get to spend much face to face time with each other, so it was fun to catch up and enjoy a wonderful meal.
Sherry and I enjoy speaking on various legal topics to fellow attorneys and entrepreneurs, and do so throughout the year. I had a busy February with various speaking opportunities, and this month, Sherry presented on legal ethics as it relates to both client communications and social media at a Washington State Bar Association Continuing Legal Education (CLE) course on March 17. Attorneys who choose to engage in social media need to do so in a way that fully complies with our ethical rules, as outlined in the Rules of Professional Conduct. It’s a fascinating and timely topic!
Speaking of fascinating topics, I’m pleased that the second installment in my series on Myers-Briggs® personality types has been published by the American Bar Association’s GPSOLO eReport. In the first article, I explored the first personality type dichotomy, Introvert/Extrovert, and how it can impact an attorney’s professional life. In this article, I delve into the remaining three personality type dichotomies, Sensing/Intuition, Thinking/Feeling, and Judging/Perceiving, and how attorneys can use this information in managing their careers. Please enjoy, and let me know what you think!
I had a wonderful time last week on my annual vacation to Indian Wells, California to attend the BNP Paribas Open Tennis Tournament! I enjoyed seeing tennis greats in action, including top ranked Novak Djokovic, spending time with good friends, and getting some much needed vitamin D.
As always, I would love to hear your questions and comments. If you have any questions about our law firm and the work we do, please contact me or visit our website.
