tim As we get closer to the Avvocating Conference, we’d like to introduce another great presenter attendees can expect to hear from at the two-day advanced online marketing for lawyers seminar.

Tim Stanley is an 18-year lawyer, computer programmer and CEO of Justia.com, a site that provides resources and services to academic institutions, public interest groups and legal professionals.  Some of the projects Tim has led include a US Supreme Court Center, with all of the US Supreme Court decisions (Supreme.Justia.com), the Stanford University Copyright and Fair Use Center (Fairuse.Stanford.edu), Legal Blog Search (BlawgSearch.com) and many other free legal information projects.  Justia also launched a legal intranet portal for General Electric’s finance group, and has developed many other websites and blogs for law firms.

Prior to starting Justia, Tim co-founded FindLaw and served as FindLaw’s CEO and Chairman.  He is on the Board of Directors of Nolo and American Legal Net, and is on the Board of Trustees of Public.Resource.org.  He is a member of the State Bar of California and was previously on the Executive Committee of the State Bar’s Law Practice Management and Technology Section.  Tim is also a member of the American Association for Justice, American Bar Association, American Civil Liberties Union, Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility and the Electronic Frontier Foundation.

On Thursday, January 21 at 4:00PM, Tim will discuss how blogs and websites can be effective marketing tools for attorneys.  In light of many existing solutions overcharging and under serving the market, Tim will offer attendees an understanding of what it takes to have a successful website without exorbitant costs.

There are still tickets left!  Sign up for the Avvocating Conference today.
