Running a solo or small practice? Who’s your backup plan?
Having a back-up plan as a sole practitioner isn’t just smart, it’s required. The Law Society mandates that all lawyers and paralegals in private practice have a written client contingency plan to address both temporary and permanent disruptions. But what does a compliant plan look like for you? Our presenters help you understand what is required to build your plan, to find an administrator, and to get your questions answered. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn the simple steps you can take now to get this done.
- Hear about the new mandatory requirement for a written contingency plan
- Understand why this planning is an important to protect your clients (and you)
- Learn about the resources available to help you develop your own plan
