Legal Marketing Association of Kentucky The Legal Marketing Association of Kentucky, in conjunction with the Louisville Bar Association, presents a can’t-miss seminar for attorneys looking to up their digital client development game. Nancy Myrland, a nationally-recognized expert in legal marketing, will make the case that LinkedIn isn’t just a tool for attorneys – it’s a necessity. A great and efficient business development tool is likely bookmarked in your browser, but the highest and best use of it requires a plan and an understanding of your goals and your ethical constraints. Myrland’s presentation will further your understanding of the importance of LinkedIn as a tool for growing your book of business and give you a road map for getting started, as well as highlighting best practices and ethical considerations in light of advertising and solicitation rules. The program will take place on Thursday, May 23rd from noon to 1 p.m. at the LBA and you can attend virtually as well. See details on this CLE on page 11. n
