I apologize for not posting for a while. Still here, just a little busy. Blogging for legal business can be a real task master. Think twice before getting into this whole blogging game. You had better like to write.
So, my wife and I took an overdue trip to Paris and Luxembourg a couple weeks ago. We skipped a real honeymoon because I didn’t want to make the partners at my old law firm upset that I was taking vacation during my first year as an associate. Now that I’m no longer at the firm, I guess I can take vacation. I’ll say this: I’ve gained a little perspective about what I want out of life since my first year of marriage and my first year as an associate attorney. Marriage is much more important. Is it any wonder that I am starting a law firm?
Anyway, I’m back and still trying to blog. As I’ve posted, I’m still working on getting licensed in Minnesota. This obviously creates a dilemma as far as writing many practice-related blog posts. To be honest, I feel a little out of the game. I am not hustling like I used to and I miss it. But, there are many, many things to get done before officially hanging out my own shingle. I’ll talk about that stuff instead.
In the main, I am concerned with two main things: (1) office space and (2) my website. Both of these things relate to my effort to focus a bit more and get my law firm start-up business plan in better shape. I am going through my old business plan and re-thinking things now that I have relocated to Minneapolis from Indiana. I have had an opportunity to scope out the market and competition a little better. Naturally, that changes the plan a little.
I’ll post more on this stuff tomorrow, but I wanted to get a post out to say sorry and I’ll try and to better. In the meantime, I’d appreciate any comments on my new website: flanderslawfirm.com.
I’m still working on the website and I know that the picture of me is terrible. I’ll get one up just as soon as somebody takes a professional looking picture of me that I like. Also, if anybody goes to my website, would you mind leaving a comment here on exactly how long it took you to get there? As in: how long did it take to load?
Thanks.
