Ab Initio

“In the beginning…” This famous opener, kicks off the Good Book and as such is good enough to ignite my first ever blog.  I’m new to this and the practice of law. But everyone was new to everything at some point. As I venture out into my legal career in a small town firm with two lawyers, I endeavor to make a difference. What kind of difference I dare not speculate.

This blog will serve as a notebook of all the legal issues I encounter. I seek to pass on the knowledge of my failures and hopefully some successes. In addition I will attempt to describe life as an attorney. But more specifically, a solo practitioner in a tiny town. One that encounters a plethora of legal questions on a daily basis ranging from alimony to workers compensation. Jack-of-all-trades trades is a requirement.

I will also pass along stories from the office and comment on pressing legal news. I like to debate and encourage disagreement.

If you are reading this you are probably a friend or family member, but thank you nonetheless. I look forward to posting and receiving your feedback. Thank you!
