My first post!

Today was an exciting day!

This morning I made my way into Boston with my parents and my girlfriend to attend the swearing in ceremony for the Massachusetts bar, The commute was stressful. Interstate 93 was a parking lot this morning leading to a self imposed detour onto route 28. We made it to Faneuil Hall around 8:55am or so for the 9am ceremony.

The ceremony itself was really nice and my girlfriend was able to present my certificate on stage. Afterwards we went to Kowloon for lunch.

Now reality sets in. I have launched the website, www.allisonlawoffice.com, and I have my business cards. Now I need to go out and get clients. I have some simple things to handle from family and friends which will help me get through the next month or so but I need to get myself out into the community and get some clients who are not related to me.

I hope that through this blog I can present the challenges I face as I attempt to start my own practice right out of law school. I will keep the majority of my blog posts short and simple but since this is my first post I will go into a little more depth.

First, I wanted to discuss what I have already done in preparation of starting my own law office. My first step was to get a domain name from Go daddy. I actually received this as a graduation gift. I then created my own website, designing my own logo and laying out the website myself. When I have more resources I will dedicate some to further improve my web site. I also have an email address, kallison@allisonlawoffice.com, feel free to email me if you would like to comment on this blog or if you are interested in procuring my services.

I look forward to the challenges that lay ahead and I hope that you all out there enjoy reading about my journey.
