The verdict is in. The students who have enrolled so far are thrilled with Solo Practice University™:
I logged in yesterday to SPU and I want to tell you that it has brought new excitement to my willingness to practice law. The information that is available on this site is outstanding! Not only have you provided a great web site, but you have injected new enthusiasm into my veins. – Glenn Cook
“SPU is like a giant toy store, and I’m like a little kid – simply thrilled to be here. Although I know I can do this (go solo right out of school), it can, at times seem like a daunting task. SPU is so empowering, I don’t know why I even continue to surf job listings anymore. It’s not like there’s anyone I want to work for other than the clients that I will develop a marketing plan (with help from SPU) to identify.”- Karen Holman
At SPU, I have the support I need to create just such a practice – from branding to blogging, to home-office technology, to running a paperless office, to balancing work and family life, to in-depth substantive training and more. Unlike the competitive tenor of law school, I greatly appreciate that everyone at SPU – from the founders to the phenomenal instructors to the students – is invested in seeing everyone else succeed. Perhaps most importantly for me, at SPU I have all of this in a flexible format that allows me to learn at my own pace and on my own schedule (and with a chickenpox-covered, sleeping toddler on my lap, as is the case tonight). – Amy Martell
@Adrianos #SPU U need to sign up for Solo Practice University if you’re a new lawyer. Wish I had this 2 years ago: - Adrianos Facchetti
“I can attest to how cool SPU is–I joined on the first day enrollment opened. I’m already learning a ton of “what they didn’t teach you in law school” over there. For example, I just checked out the personal injury 101 class and read through the instructor’s outline of a personal injury case, from making the phone ring to closing and retaining the file.
SPU seems to be oriented to those devil in the details things of running a law firm that terrify new lawyers into mistakes, or worse still, non-action. I’m not affiliated with SPU at all, I just believe that SPU is the resource that I’ve always wanted to help me start my law practice, including figuring out how to do it while still raising my kids in the way I want.”Dallas Lain
@vpynchon - had lunch with #SPU student; she is ridiculously excited & can’t believe the students get so much value for such a reasonable price! nice.
Susan – I’m really enjoying SPU so far. I feel a bit like a kid in a candy store, I want to sign up for everything! I’ve learned quite a bit from the blogging course and have started in on bankruptcy and T&E. Can’t wait for the others to begin! - Jackie Bedard
