Long Branch, New Jersey

Dear ALA Member,

To be successful in today’s law firms or legal departments, administrators require the expertise and knowledge to handle the myriad of challenges that crop up every day. With that in mind, we invite you to Harvest Your Knowledge and join us on October 29-30 in Long Branch, New Jersey for the 2010 Region 1 Conference & Expo.

The conference will kick-off with a humorous and interactive keynote address by Dr.Cal LeMon titled, In the Morning, Always Put on Clean Underwear. This lighthearted and engaging session will address how certain rules are crafted throughout life. Dr. LeMon will get you to laugh at some of the stupid rules in the workplace and offer some new ones which may not be timeless, but will work.

With more than 20 educational sessions to choose from, covering such timely and diverse topics as Social Media and the Law Firm, Time Management, Benefits: The CliffsNotes Version and Business Intelligence through Financial Reporting, you will gain invaluable insights into the complex and changing world of the professional law firm administrator. From start to finish, you will have an extraordinary opportunity to learn the tools and techniques that will allow you to return to your firm with the ability to react and adapt to new challenges with confidence and assurance.

The conference will close with a “can’t miss” general session presentation by acclaimed speaker, consultant, author and TV personality Loretta LaRoche. Life is Not a Stress Rehearsal will help you to learn how and why you need to take a break from our techno-crazed world with some contemporary wit and common sense. To get the most from your conference experience, be sure to visit the Exhibit Hall where ALA business partners will showcase the latest in cutting-edge legal products and services to help you do your job better, faster and more efficiently. Our business partners are an integral part of the Region 1 Conference & Expo and will provide information and education about the latest software, law office management services, equipment, technology and more – all in one place to save you time, effort and money.

There will be plenty of time for networking and fun too! In addition to networking opportunities held in the Exhibit Hall, you can connect with old friends and make new ones at the Thursday’s Networking Reception hosted by the New Jersey ALA and New York City ALA Chapters. You won’t want to miss the very special fun-filled Friday evening event hosted by ALA as you relax with your friends and “Rock with the BROC“– New Jersey’s own party band, Screaming Broccolli.

We are excited about this Conference and we’re sure you will find it a valuable learning experience that is aimed to give you an edge in today’s competitive environment.
