| Running a SSF Law Firm in 2023: Understanding Impacts of Changes to Colorado Employment & Business Law |
December 13
12:00 PM - 1:30 PM
| Designed especially for solo and small law firm owners, this 90-minute session focuses on legislated changes to Colorado employment and business law and how those laws will affect how solo and small law firm owners do business, both with the daily operations of their own firms and in working with their clients. This course is ideal for law firm owners, who are growing their businesses and will have or do currently have employees. We will focus on the wave of new laws that were passed in 2022 and go into effect in 2023. From termination notice requirements to the state's Family Medical Leave Insurance Act, this course will be an overview of the new lay of the land in employment in business in Colorado. The Practical Lawyer CLE Series is intended to provide solo and small law firm owners the knowledge needed to successfully run a small business, incorporating the duties of attorneys toward their clients under the Rules of Professional Responsibility. Each Practical Lawyer seminar focuses on an aspect of operating a law firm, with some content presented as a "how-to" tutorial on topics such as succession planning, developing a business plan, choice of entity, or creating a library of necessary firm documents, including engagement letters and conflict waivers.
