Blogger Downey helps celebrate “Swindle Your Firm” Month

September 10th, 2009 | By Mike Downey

On September 17, EQ blogger Mike Downey will moderate a telephone seminar for the ABA Law Practice Management Section titled Preventing and Responding to Employee Embezzlement at Law Firms. Sign-up information is available at http://www.abanet.org/cle/programs/t09prp1.html.

This seems particularly timely, since today the Wall Street Journal said they were close to proclaiming September 2009 “Rip Off Your Law Firm Month.” See http://blogs.wsj.com/law/2009/09/09/with-alleged-saul-ewing-caper-swindle-your-law-firm-month-continues/.
