Podcast on Opening A Practice

So, who’s been a solo long enough to remember when Jay Foonberg’s How to Start and Build a Law Practice was the only game in town?  These days, not only do the bar associations offer plentiful resources (many of which are listed here at our OnLine Guide), but weblogs like Greatest American Lawyer, Home Office Lawyer, Non Billable Hour and of course MyShingle are brimming with tips on starting and running a law practice (and very likely, this new blog, The Practice by three of my fellow sezzers will be once it’s fully up and running).  But even beyond the blog, there’s now a podcast by California solo Jonathan Stein on Opening A Law Practice that’s posted on Micromash.  Jon’s podcast covers the basic considerations that go into starting a firm and also explores the various corporate structures, e.g., sole proprietorship, partnership, etc…that one might consider when opening a firm.

And to respond to my own opening question (which wasn’t rhetorical – feel free to send in your responses as comments), I’ve been solo almost a dozen years, long enough to remember when Foonberg was the only game in town.  And despite the competition that my blog faces from so many other excellent resources that cover this solo/small firm beat, there’s no way I’d ever want to turn back the clock.
