Have laptop, will travel. This site is for the solo and small firm mobile legal professional on both sides of the Atlantic -- including barristers, advocates, lawyers, attorneys, and solicitors of all stripes.

I'm an American lawyer living in the United Kingdom working as a legal consultant for universities, the public sector, and private clients. I've been to 36 US states and 12 countries, and am already on track to add a whole lot more. I still haven't been to Canada, but make me an offer and I'll be there.
I've worked on my laptop in planes, trains, and automobiles, in coffee shops, pubs, bars, and restaurants, in libraries and in parks. You'll probably find me looking for a power point and an open wireless network.
