Networking/Partnership Meetings

COLO SPRINGS:  The December 3rd meeting will be a CLE program, "The Ethics of Fee Agreements."  One CLE ethics credit has been requested.  The January 7 meeting will be an open forum to discuss any topic you wish and to identify topics for the 2009 programs.  E-mail or call John Holcomb, jholco@msn.com, 548-8968, or Jim Duve, JCD@DuveLaw.com, 578-5800, if you will attend either of these programs.  See meeting details below. 

Parker/Castle Rock/Elizabeth/Kiowa - RSVP REQUIRED!  This meeting often takes place at a local restaurant.  Please RSVP to Shelly Rosnik, the meeting coordinator, (303) 840-0133, or shelly@rosniklaw.com.  See meeting details below.

The Solo/Small Firm Section partnership meetings are a great networking opportunity, as well as a practice management and technology discussion forum.  The meetings are open to all CBA members, not just Solo/Small Firm Section members, the sponsoring entity.  A CBA staff member is almost always in attendance.  CLE credits are routinely offered, although sometimes there is no formal agenda, and no RSVP is required.  We encourage you to think about and prepare questions or ideas to present to the group.  Don't hesitate to e-mail a contact person to suggest a CLE topic and/or speaker!

Meetings are currently held in five locations (dates are subject to change; however, they will occur as scheduled unless prior notice has been sent to the CBA membership via e-mail.  Please check this website on a regular basis):

Parker/Castle Rock/Elizabeth/Kiowa - RSVP REQUIRED! Brown Bag Lunch at 12 o'clock noon.  NOTE:  This meeting often takes place at a local restaurant.  Please RSVP to Shelly.
