ABA TECHSHOW, March 25-27th in Chicago, has several sessions on the paperless practice and practicing law in the cloud. Be sure to check out “Going Virtual with Web Applications: New Forms of Practice” presented by Will Hornsby and Marc Lauritsen. I’ll be attending the show this year if anyone wants to meet up.

The next Virtual LegalTech will be on March 18th from 9-5am EST. It’s a unique way to network online with other attorneys, attend educational sessions and check out the exhibitors. One session that might be of interest to the attorney with a virtual law practice: “Developing a Comprehensive and Legally Sound Social Media Policy.” You can hop in and out of this event throughout the day which makes it really convenient.
