From the President

Hello,

Welcome to our March Issue. While over the years we have focused our articles on discovery issues, more recently we have begun to include use of e-technology in the legal arena.   So make sure to check out our coming issues, and let us know what you would like to read about.

Have a productive month of March!

Best,

Sheila Atkinson-Baker
