<\/a>Do It Yourself Law on the Internet vs. Us, the Lawyers<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n


\n<\/span>Friday, Feb. 6, 2004: 3:15 p.m. \u2013 5:15 p.m.
\nDescription:<\/strong>
\nWhy bother with a law firm if you can get all the divorce papers, wills or other consumer legal services over the Internet? The emergence of legal service websites that claim 10, 20, even 30,000 transactions are already having an impact on the legal profession. Smart lawyers are developing competitive but lawyer-run sites that tap a whole new market for legal services. The ABA House of Delegates just passed a set of Best Practice Guidelines for Consumer Legal Web sites. How do the current crop of lawyer, non-lawyer, and anti-lawyer web sites stack up against the Guidelines? And how can your firm leverage the lessons of these pioneers?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
