Law and Order: The Importance of Practice Management in a Law Firm Startup

We often think of Practice Management in the context of managing a large legal practice. But how does it actually apply to a startup? What principles apply to the first days and years of a firm with just a few partners? Where do they start? And/or what do they wish they would have paid attention to first if things didn't go smoothly?

Questions the moderator will ask the speaker:
-Tell us a little about you and your firm.
-What made you decide to leave your prior job and when did you know it was time to break out on your own?
-What resources did you take for granted at your prior firm? 
-What has been the most eye-opening part of the transition from practicing attorney to manager of your own firm?  
-What technology are you using for case management software? 
-How are you structuring the firm to meet your management needs and how is that integrating?
-What advice would you give someone contemplating making the same change?
