people.  This year's Fall Social Pot Luck social will be on November 10.  For more information on

SECTION HAPPY HOURS

Several times each bar year, the Solo/Small Firm Section sponsors casual happy hour events after
work at a local establishment.  This is a great opportunity to meet with other attorneys in solo or small
firm practice and build your referral network!  Light hors d'oeurves are provided and drinks are cash
bar.

The Solo/Small Firm Section is committed to mutual support and career development.  To that end,
the Board of Directors is working on developing a closer relationship with the UT Law School.  Our
goal is to provide mentoring opportunities for practicing lawyers and mentors for students entering
the field as solo or small firm practitioners.  If you need an intern, summer law clerk or just want to
help, we can put you in touch with the right people.
