I am extremely pleased to announce that the OBA Sole, Small Firm and General Practice Section List Serve will be launched in the next few days. This list serve will give you the ability to interact with other Section members by simultaneously sending a single e-mail message to all of them. List serves, sometimes called e-mail lists, are really nothing more than a group of people with the same e-mail address. In effect, they allow a large group conversation via e-mail. In the next few days we will be sending out an e-mail that has instructions on how you "subscribe” to this list. This member benefit is not automatic for all members – you must subscribe to participate on the list. People join a list serve to interact with other people who are interested in the same topic – in this case – information and issues that would interest sole, small firm and general practice lawyers in Ontario. This will include a wide variety of topics, case law updates, referrals, practice management questions and dozens of other topics of interest.
In the next few days all Section members will receive an e-mail inviting them to join the list serve. If you want to participate, please follow the instructions. If you don’t want to participate just ignore the message – you can always join later. I encourage you to take advantage of this amazing opportunity to network with like-minded fellow Ontario sole, small firm and general practitioners.
