Law Practice Management

The Law Practice Management Program is a member service to help all Georgia lawyers and their employees pull together the pieces of the office management puzzle. Whether you need advice on new computers or copiers, personnel issues, compensation, workflow, file organization, tickler systems, library materials or software, we have the resources and training to assist you. Feel free to browse our on-line forms and articles collections, check out a book or videotape from our library, or learn more about our on-site management consultations and training sessions.

If you have questions about the program, please do not hesitate to contact: Natalie Kelly, Director (404) 527-8770 e-mail: nataliek@gabar.org.
