Transitions, Transitions, Transitions.
Funny thing about being a blogger. Things happen. Good things. Bad things sometimes. But good things mostly. As many of you may notice, I typically blog 5 to 6 times week.
The frequency of my posts has slowed down over the past two weeks for a good reason.
I was approached by Tredway, Lumsdaine & Doyle, LLP to bring my estate planning and probate practice to their Long Beach office not too long ago. TLD is an excellent community based law firm with offices in Long Beach, Downey and Irvine, California, offering representation in wide range of legal matters involving business and consumer law.
How being approached by TLD relates to blogging is as follows: I was one of three invited speakers by Lorman Seminars to present at two estate planning seminars. Lorman approached me because of my blogging presence. I met Mark Doyle from these seminars as he was one of the three invited speakers. After the first seminar, I was approached by Mark about a possible opportunity. And so it goes.
This transition required me to examine my own goals as a solo law practitioner. It also required me to make heavy decisions about my existing practice and where I saw its future.
In the end, the opportunity to practice law within TLD was too good of an opportunity for me to turn down. Furthermore, this opportunity will allow me to spend even greater time with clients assisting with their legal matters involving estate planning, probate and trust administration.
This is possible because of the existing infrastructure at TLD, which frees me to spend more time blogging, meeting with clients and producing estate planning documents without having to worry about running a business at the same time.
Sure, I am giving up some freedoms, but the trade off to spend my time with you as clients is what I am gaining by joining TLD.
You'll find me at the blog more than ever before with lots of estate planning, probate and trust administration posts. Stick around for what's to come.

This area of the law needs more practitioners, as boomers get older, more attorneys will be needed

You were not a solo practitioner you had a law firm with another attorney. You left for more money.
