Attention Members! Two New Alberta Sections

Solo, Small and General Practice (South & North)
This new Section gives lawyers in both urban and rural settings an opportunity to share challenges, knowledge and solutions. Join us for the 2011/2012 season as we examine issues relevant to practice management and development, including efficiencies created by software and technology, strategies for hiring staff, basic business management, support options for a relaxing vacation and succession planning.

Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity (South & North)
This new Section provides a forum for the exchange of information, ideas and action on legal issues relating to sexual orientation and gender identity. The Section also addresses the needs and concerns of the LGBTQ members within the Association.
