Prepare to be Integrated
Happy Birthday Integrated Circuit, Lawbylund.com
Fifty years ago from the date of this post, the integrated circuit was born. Despite the absence of Napa valley wine, or celebrations among gaggles of nerds and engineers, the Law by Lund blog launched and was celebrated with our viewing of the new Star Trek movie amongst a dozen late night movie goers at the Cedar Creek movie theater in Mosinee, Wisconsin (wife’s choice, actually, but I won’t disavow my Treekiedom.)
Blogging takes a commitment of time, which I’m always short of, and energy, which I tend to generate out of sheer necessity at times. However, I hope to provide a resource for the Internet community that will supplement their own queries about such things as bankruptcy, estate planning and divorce. I don’t think a single attorney can become an expert in all three areas of the law simultaneously, and in an age that pressures us to specialize, I am convinced that there is room for the Focused Generalist.
Control freaks are doomed
Transition is the common thread that weaves bankruptcy, estate planning and family law into a tight knot at times. The one certainty is that life changes, and the one uncertainty is how things will settle. Human psychology has created an untenable position for the control freak: no matter how many times you sweep a floor, dirt remains. I’m personally fascinated by the interplay of stability and chaos, and have taken great pains to explore those issues in an academic setting. However, the real joy is watching how people overcome great challenges and obstacles in their environment to improve their lives, press forward to support their families, and take risks to build new dreams.
I’ve designed the site to make it easy for readers interested in these areas of law to find me. I hope to provide guidance and am excited to use the Internet as a tool to improve legal service to my clients.
The next big project: Integration
Prepare to be Integrated
A step-by-step bankruptcy filing process is in the final stages of completion. Online forms will soon be available that will provide clear, simple directions to those who use our office to file bankruptcy. Our goal is to maximize our chances of a successful plan or discharge, while easing the burden on our copy machines, pencils, and in turn, our trees. I’ve studied the most promising vendors in the market to find a form system that is secure and easy to use. I also plan to provide calendar services that will integrate with most PDAs and implement informational videos to explain the basics of bankruptcy filing.
I hope to provide integration: using the same circuits that share this blog’s anniversary to make the bankruptcy process easy to understand and more approachable.
