Includes a Live Web Event on 05-06-2026 at 2:00 PM (CDT)

Maximizing Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace in the Solo & Small Firm Practice

This two-part seminar will show solo and small firm lawyers how to get the most out of the tools they already pay for in both Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. Part one focuses on Microsoft 365 (Outlook, OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams, Copilot, etc.). Part two then walks through Google Workspace (Gmail, Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, Meet, Gemini, etc.). Learn practical examples of how to collaborate with clients and staff, automate routine work, and use AI responsibly without sacrificing confidentiality or ethics.

Microsoft 365 for Lawyers
Get real-world value from Microsoft 365 by turning Outlook, OneDrive, and SharePoint into a simple, matter-focused system for email, calendars, and documents. You’ll see how tools like Teams, OneNote, and Copilot can quickly draft emails, summarize documents, and create first-draft templates, all while staying organized, protecting client confidentiality, and meeting your ethical obligations. You’ll also learn about integrating other AI solutions into Microsoft 365.

Google Workspace for Lawyers
Explore how solo and small law firms can utilize Google Workspace, Gemini, and NotebookLM to build a secure, matter-centric architecture provides the foundation for modern workflows. Learn to configure foundational Workspace tools, such as setting up Google Groups Collaborative Inboxes for client intake, utilizing granular access controls in Forms, and leveraging Google Meet features. The presentation dives deep into AI product capabilities for the practice and the business of law.
