Running a Law Office on a MAC (and other APPLE products)
More and more solo and small firm attorneys have turned to the Mac and the Apple OS to run
their offices. Many more are considering whether they should make the switch. We will talk about the pros and cons of running your law office on the Mac in order to help you make the decision about whether to switch to the Mac. As we will talk about specific programs that may help you with your practice, if you are already a Mac user, you will not want to miss this program as you may discover that key piece of software you have searched for since you switched or something else that may make it easier for you to run your office because you have chosen to move to the Mac and the Apple OS.

Leveraging Technology for More Efficient ADR Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) systems are designed to effectively prevent, manage, and resolve claims, conflicts, and disputes. The challenging part in any system design is to determine what will be ‘effective’ in any given situation to prevent disputes and to minimize the severity and cost of disputes that still occur. This session will explore how to leverage web-based technologies to design and manage efficient and effective ADR systems, and how to introduce clients to the benefits of utilizing ADR to prevent and minimize disputes.
