Smallfirmville

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Marshall R. Isaacs. I was invited by New York State Bar Association Web Site Editor, Barbara Beauchamp, to write the NYSBA’s Small Law Firm and Solo Practice Blog.

I hope it is not foreshadowing but mere coincidence that Beauchamp means “beautiful field” in French while my last name translates roughly into “rabbit pellets.”

Just kidding! Isaacs in Hebrew means “laughter,” which is what I have been recruited, in part, to provide. Ms. Beauchamp asked me to write for the NYSBA after stumbling upon the humorous and satirical postings in my personal blog “Summary Judgment”. I will endeavor to carry my musings over to the NYSBA’s Web site, along with Summary Judgment’s dedicated and loyal following. (Love you, mom and dad!)

I look forward to sharing my forthright, no-nonsense and often contrarian perspectives on solo and small firm practice and, hopefully, not costing Ms. Beauchamp and her staff their jobs.
