Akron Law Alumni Chris White will be offering a two-night training seminar for Akron Law students interested in solo practice.
“How to Hang Out Your Shingle”: The Business of Practice
This program is being presented by Christopher White, 2011 University of Akron, School of Law alumni and Managing Partner for White Law Office, Co. (thewhitelawoffice.com). The first milestone of your legal career is designing a practice that generates value, giving back to you more than it takes. This program will (1) cover practical steps for setting up and administering a solo or small firm, and (2) explore some of the most common pitfalls solo and small firm owners and practitioners encounter. Whether you are going to go solo or build a firm, it is no longer enough to be a legal practitioner, you must also be an entrepreneur.

Space is limited for this seminar. If you are interested in attending, please email Asst. Dean O’Brien (ab139@uakron.edu.) to reserve your spot.
