For attorneys looking to expand their client rosters and potential clients who need limited assistance—and have limited resources—limited scope representation (LSR) is a very welcome development. In its January issue, the Illinois Bar Journal (IBJ) provides an overview of a two-part CLE webinar sponsored by the ISBA and prepared for those who haven’t explored LSR and for those who’d like to hone their approaches.

The ISBA Standing Committee on Women & the Law will host the 2024 Annual Tea Celebrating Women's History Month on Friday, March 8, 2024, from 3:00 - 5:00 p.m. at the Loews Chicago Hotel, 455 North Park Drive. 

Investing in the construction of a new home or remodeling an existing home may be one of the largest financial investments that a client may make. Moreover, securing the home of “their dreams” is also an emotional investment by the client. Don’t miss this two-part online program that gives you an overview of the various construction law issues from the owner’s perspective, which will allow you to better protect your clients from construction and payment disputes with their contractors and guide them to a smoother journey to obtain their dream home. 

Judges, just like the attorneys who practice in their courtrooms, benefit greatly from feedback on how well they’re performing in their jobs. While attorneys typically work closely with their peers, and likely undergo regular performance reviews in their law firms, this process is more difficult for judges.
