Practice Law Anywhere With an Internet Connection

With VLOTech software, an attorney can operate an entirely-virtual law practice, carry his practice with him, or just add flexibility and ease of client communications to his practice.

Total Impact House Update

We’ve been raising money for Total Impact House Total Attorneys style—which means things have gotten a little crazy around the office. Last month, the men of Total Attorneys put their vanity on the line with the "Uganda Nice 'Stache" competition, and friends and colleagues voted with their wallets. These brave men raised more than $1250 for Total Impact House, and then our Halloween fundraiser was right around the corner.

Meanwhile, Kristen shows us the real impact on our girls. Touchingly, as they show her around the house they’re beginning to make their own, they’re asking after their “friends in Chicago”. We’re expecting three or four new residents by the end of the month!

Company Buzz

Last month, Total Attorneys CEO Ed Scanlan made Crain’s Chicago Business’s "40 Under 40" list, Brill Street & Co. put us at #6 on its list of the most Generation-Y-friendly companies in the Chicagoland area, and Forbes stepped into the fray with a powerful statement on the pending pay-per-performance ethics investigation.
