Why Go Paperless? David Bilinsky explains.

Posted by alan | education, law practice management | Wednesday 25 March 2009 11:54 am

My friend David Bilinsky is the Practice Management Advisor and staff lawyer for the Law Society of British Columbia.  I read his Thoughtful Legal Management blog religiously, perhaps because he always incorporates some obscure lyrics and/or songs into each blog.  All kidding aside, his posts are informative and provocative while easy to understand.  His recent blog “The Paper-less Practice of Law in BC,” actually rings true for why attorneys across the country should embrace the notion of a “Less Paper” law practice.

Tomorrow is going to be great. It’s my type of seminar.  I, along with many of my colleagues, will be presenting at tomorrow’s Legal Tech seminar at the Sheraton Framingham, just off of Exit 12 on the Mass Pike.  It’s my type of seminar because we’re giving this to you in 15 minute spurts, not hour-long talking head presentations.  On the menu?

Rodney Dowell will be speaking on naming conventions for your files.

I will be speaking on the best PDF tricks for lawyers. I’m throwing in scanning tips as well.

Jared Correia will be speaking on Outlook tricks. Think OHIO (Only Handle It Once)

Chris Perruzzi will be speaking about Dragon Naturally Speaking

Andrea Goldman and David Harlow will be speaking on social networking

Rodney, Jared and Mark Kupsc will be speaking about the new Data Privacy Act

Then LexisNexis is providing a free hour on search engine marketing.

There are going to be lots of vendors showcasing lots of cool toys and stuff.

The best part?  This is all free.

Come on down and say hello.  This is gonna rock.

And don’t forget to listen to WBZ 1030 AM on your way over.  You may hear a familiar voice discussing the Tech Fair during the business news portion of the news…
