LSSO Listserve Launched!
We have BIG news. In response to recent input received from the LSSO Benefits Survey, LSSO launched its own listserve this week.
The LSSO List is designed for high level discussions by and between lawyer leaders and business professionals. We may moderate it from time to time, but our goal is for it to be self-regulated by contributors who wish to engage in conversations about industry news and trends and share valuable resources and information. LSSO members,you receive a FREE subscription to the LSSO List as one of your benefits. As a service, LSSO automatically subscribed all current members, so please expect to receive a communication about that shortly. Once you receive an auto email confirmation, simply follow the instructions to accept your subscription request. All others are invited to participate at only $89 a year. Subscribe now, we'll invoice you later, so you can start posting right away.
