It's that Muscle Boutique thing again...
While WAC? still thinks that solos face a tough time obtaining and keeping Fortune 500 clients (minimum: you need 3 full-time higher-end well-paid lawyers--each king-hell crazy about client service), we do like Susan Cartier Liebel's post "Solo and Small Firms Should Go In For the Kill", which echos some of our own usual rants re: firms between 5 and 100 lawyers serving clients normally represented by much larger law firms. And we love Susan's pluck. Her post turns on yesterday's Patrick Lamb discussion on GC dissatisfaction. Hat tip to the mysterious Editor of Blawg Review.

Yes, I do have pluck. ;^)...who says the three highly paid, talented lawyers can't be these gifted solos collaborating on special projects? Who says these highly talented lawyers who operate sleek paperless offices with virtual assistants thereby eliminating costly overhead items like WC, health, unemployment and salaries for employees can't handle the job brilliantly but much more efficiently with great cost-effectiveness? There are many ways to provide quality service large corporations seek. It is the job of these solos to educate these clients and then deliver the high quality. And education and communication is the beginning of great client service. But you know that ,^)!
