Speaking Engagements

Need a way to tell your clients one of your attorneys is going to giving a talk or participating on a panel in a practice area you believe your client may be interested in. A law firm portal is a great way to do this - you can add a bulletin board item or an upcoming event identifying the speaker, location and time of the event. Even if the client can not attend, a law firm can convey the fact they have a skilled and knowledgeable practice group with such messages.



A law firm might also wish to post meeting summaries or transcripts as a way of providing some historical benefit to the public speaking appearance of the firm's attorney. This also can be done via a law firm portal by adding a document or bulletin board item to the system.

New attorney announcement

Has your firm just hired a powerhouse attorney in a new practice area? How are you going to tell your clients about this?



We all know some of the usual ways -- newspaper and website announcements, word of mouth, perhaps a mailed article. But, using a law firm portal is yet another way to do this. The marketing department of a law firm can post a document or bulletin board notice outlining the arrival of the new attorney. And, what is even more powerful is the fact you can customize these announcements on a client specific basis if you wish. If you want to break through into new practice groups with particular clients, this is a terrific way to do so!!!
