"How to make our LDA business grow"

CALDA Professional Standards Chairperson

 I was lucky enough to be able to attend the annual conference in Sacramento October 19-21. What a great conference! We had Judges, attorneys, Court specialists and fellow CALDA members as speakers. I managed to attend most of the classes while still helping with registration, among other things. The classes gave us ideas on how to make our business grow. We were told what judgment clerks at the Court look for. We listened to family law from an attorney's perspective, learned estate planning for domestic partners and so much more.

Vendors & Fundraising contribute to conference success

 | | Paula Grohs from Forensicworx |
The annual conference held at the Hyatt in Sacramento was a great success in the fundraising department!! We had several vendors whose services ranged from Forms software (Bob Kehn From Essential Forms) and bankruptcy counseling (Lisa Greenfield from Consumer Bankruptcy Counseling) to Attorneys (Paula Grohs from Forensicworx) who is now a part of the newly formed Elias Referral Network. And we had Clifford Wiens from Pennbrook Insurance, who provides LDA bonds among other insurance products. They showcased their products and services to all in attendance and were able to make some great contacts. Also at the fundraising table, there were many products for sale that went like hotcakes!! And what a great success that was!!
