It has become a tradition: Each year in our first column of the year we discuss our New Year’s Resolutions for the brand new year ahead. Let’s face it; 2008 was a bruiser. In 2009, we are hoping for the best but preparing for less, and we think our resolutions reflect both our optimism and our realism.
As our first resolution for 2009, we resolve to spend more time seeking out newer members of the bar, for our good and for theirs. Simply put, it’s fun to be around young lawyers, to feel their enthusiasm about the law, their new careers and their potential to make a positive contribution to society. Young lawyers can help us in our practices, as they are more technology savvy and have more recent experience and familiarity with a wider range of legal topics. Unfortunately, they are entering the job market in difficult times, and it’s up to us to reach out and try to help them.
