This session was recorded on 14 February 2022 as part of a mandatory rule 6.1 live webinar.

How to run your law firm from a laptop - In this session you will learn how to work like a digital nomad. Technology tools for professionals are more affordable than they've ever been. Meanwhile, COVID-19 has changed not only how we work, but the expectations of our co-workers and clients. Richard will teach you about some of the tools that will let you run your legal practice more efficiently from a laptop, in your home, at the local cafe, or on the other side of the world. 

Practitioners should inform themselves of Rule 6.1 of the Legal Profession Uniform Continuing Professional Development (Solicitors) Rules 2015 which sets out the requirements for the four (4) mandatory CPD areas for NSW legal practitioners – (a) ethics and professional responsibility; (b) practice management and business skills; (c) professional skills; and (d) substantive law. It is the responsibility of each legal practitioner to self-assess as to whether a particular educational activity extends their knowledge and skills in areas that are relevant to their practice needs or professional development.
