I’ve got a new favorite blog (which I need to add to my BlogRoll). It is called “the [non]billable hour” by Matthew Homann. His posts cover a wide range of topics (client relations, client service, law office economics, marketing, and time management (to name a few)). Here are a couple of my favorite “[non]billable” posts:
More on Naming your Business–talks about the “five star standard of business naming.” I actually used this post the day it came out to explain why the client’s proposed trademark (which was clearly “merely descriptive”) needed to be rethought before we even performed a trademark search.
Administrative Professionals Day 2004. Talks about the concept of giving your secretary (for Secretary’s Day) the authority to fire one client.

Stephen, thanks again for the kind words. When I started blogging, I did so out of selfish reasons — I wanted to prod myself to change my practice and felt a public forum would “keep me honest” and moving towards my goals. I am constantly amazed when progressive lawyers like you tell me they read my site. You are making me a better blogger and a better lawyer. I hope I don’t let you down.
