State Law Resources - An Interesting Perspective on Law Firm Networks

I spoke with Patrick Paul, a partner with Snell & Wilmer, and the chairman of the board for State Law Resources, Inc., an international law firm network that focuses on referrals associated with state capital representation, government relations practices, and lobbying. We discussed the mission of State Law Resources, how it differs from other law firm networks, its selection criteria, the location of its members, reasons that a firm should join a network, and what the increasing influence of law firm networks reflects about the changing nature of legal practice.
