The Alabama State Bar’s Law Practice Management Program provides technology and management assistance to lawyers in Alabama, including CLE programming, individual training, and firm-level consulting. Law school education doesn’t always prepare attorneys to effectively run the business side of a practice.

The program’s strategic tools are designed to help you manage your law practice with increased efficiency and profitability. Many of the resources will especially assist solo and small firm lawyers, but all lawyers can benefit from staying up-to-date on technology available. Lawyers can enhance the quality of legal services provided to their clients and avoid potential disciplinary issues stemming from poor law practice management.

Whether you need guidance on technology, firm finances, organization or library materials, you can find resources and training to support your needs.

Call our office at 334-517-2130 or email at jillian.evans@alabar.org for a quick question or schedule a free consultation.
