An interview with Christian Lang from Reynen CourtSmall law firm owners may not be familiar with the terms "docker," "container," or "Kubernetes." They may even be a bit fuzzy on the definition of “the cloud.” But most firms know that, along with significant opportunities, new technologies often present security risks, interoperability challenges, and significant costs in terms of time and money to vet, test, and deploy. What’s a firm to do? Unfortunately, there’s no silver bullet for the solo and small firm universe - at least not yet - but, as today’s guest explains, that is precisely what Christian Lang, Chief Strategy Officer, and his te...

Many of these statements are true in some pretty fundamental ways. But they’re also really damaging. Super accountant-to-law-firms-extraordinaire, Chelsea Williams, has the remedy.

But whether you want to call them CEOs or managing partners, or partners, or business owners - the fact remains that they are heads of their respective businesses - effectively, they are “CEOs.” And if you want to be a CEO, you need to get comfortable with selling.

Financially Legal26. Should you shift credit card fees to your clients? Host Dan Lear makes the case for this controversial practiceWhat if I told you there was a tool that could automatically increase your firm revenue by 1%? What about 2%? What about 3%? What about even half a percent? (if you’re not great at doing math on the fly, for a firm that grosses $1,000,000/year, one half a percent is $5000). Law firms that accept electronic payments and implement a cost-shifting technology have an opportunity to dramatically lower their costs and increase revenues. Shifting the costs of payment processing in a consumer-friendly, ethically compliant way or even, simply, strategically deploying lower-cost payment processing methods can result in significant savings fo...

OmelieSalvati dalla Speranza - Io Confido in Te (Padre José)Cosa vuol dire speranza? Sperare è un qualcosa che va oltre l'aspettare, che sorpassa l'attesa.
Aspettare vuol dire far passare il tempo mentre arriva qualcosa, senza nessuna pretesa o forte desiderio.
Nell'attesa, invece, sono personalmente coinvolto, sto aspettando con un'attenzione positiva.
Ma al Speranza dice ancora qualcosa in più: è attendere vigile qualcosa che già c'è, ma di cui aspetto il suo compimento.
Dio ha già acquistato in Gesù la Pienezza della nostra Vita: Gioia senza fine nella Sua Presenza. Lui ha versato tutto il suo Amore nei nostri cuore con lo Sp...
