Faculty Announcement – Stephanie L. Kimbro
October 31, 2008 in Faculty by Susan Cartier Liebel
Stephanie operates a web-based Virtual Law Office (VLO) in North Carolina and will teach about all aspects of running a Virtual Law practice in the 21st century at Solo Practice University™.
She is the co-founder of Virtual Law Office Technology, LLC (VLOTech) which creates and supports VLOs for solo and small firm practitioners nationwide. Her virtual law practice has been featured in Lawyers USA, The Federal Lawyer , NC Lawyers Weekly and National Magazine’s /Addendum/.
Stephanie is interested in technology and ethics issues in virtual law practice and writes about these topics on her blog, Virtual Law Practice. She has presented a CLE for the NC Bar Association’s GP/Solo and Small Firm Symposium on ethics issues in virtual law practice.
Stephanie received her JD from the University of Dayton School of Law, a law school with a nationally recognized Law and Technology Program. She also holds an MA from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. Stephanie is looking forward to sharing her elawyering experience and providing students with the information they need to hang a virtual shingle, either as a solo or in conjunction with a traditional law office.
Stephanie also maintains a website and the blog, Virtual Law Practice.
This is an exciting addition as I’ll likely be pursuing a similar path to Mrs. Kimbro. Any idea yet on how much membership will cost? I’d like to get an idea as I prepare my budget whether SPU is something I can afford.
@Kenan – I make a PROMISE to you and every potential student at Solo Practice University…the tuition will be VERY affordable. It is part of SPU’s mission to recognize all the challenges new lawyers and current solos face. More often than not, financial is in the top three.
Keep checking back…it won’t be long before we announce.
Thanks for joining the discussion.
Another awesome addition to the faculty. What better place to learn solo practice than online… and with specific instruction on virtual offices. I look forward to Stephanie’s information!
@Joe That’s exactly the way we feel. Virtual learning may be the only option available to some and the faculty we have lined up not only understands this but has embraced (or is willing to embrace)this and are excited by the possibilities.
Stephanie — congrats on being the next faculty announced for SPU. I am so excited to see you are among those teaching. And I am excited to know that those who are taking advantage of SPU will get exposed to the concept of the Virtual Law Office. The VLO way of operating a law office is truly the future and it will be exciting for those at SPU to learn from someone so passionate about it.
Again, congrats and SPU is getting better and better with each announcement. And way to go Susan for landing a quality faculty member like Stephanie.
Thank you to everyone for the warm welcome! I’m looking forward to working with SPU students, and I can’t wait to start up a productive dialogue about virtual law practice.
Virtual Law Offices (VLOs) are becoming more common in the legal profession. SPU will provide the perfect platform to discuss the use of technology to practice law online. I’m excited to start teaching!
