Tom: I would like that also.  I will be driving between ten and eleven today.  if possible I would like you to call my cell then: 206 200 8721.

(every time I preface a request with a phrase like “if possible””, I ask myself ‘why do we include such superfluous words so often?’)

Colleagues,

I would like to hear from fellow practitioners re experiences with small firm/solo practitioners pooling resources to share admins, referrals, etc., outside of a traditional partner framework, in order to further each of the colleague's respective practices.

 To that end, I would like to know about fellow colleagues' experiences or guidance on how "of counsel" attorneys work, especially when it comes to tax structures for Of Counsels who maintain a portfolio of their own clients when "joining" an existing firm.

Please feel free to email me directly, at rtl at rtleelaw.attorney<mailto:rtl at rtleelaw.attorney>.

Thanks!
-Tom Lee
