ISBA law management conferences coming up

For you non-IL Bar Assn. members out there I wanted to point out a couple of programs coming up that deal with small firm management issues that might be of interest.

1. Rainmaking: Becoming a Trusted Advisor to Your Clients. To me this is a convenient time slot (for those of us with no children or no life) at 6pm to 830pm, July 18th.

2. Shine up your Shingle. This is ISBA's second attempt at this major effort for CLE to I think in essence take care of most of your year's worth of MCLE in one full weekend...it's out at Pheasant Run in St. Charles. I personally missed it last year but heard good things. And your's truly and Bryan Sims, James, Gustafson, and Thompson, Ltd. are doing a panel on electronic communication.
