Florida criminal defense and attorney discipline attorney Brian Tannebaum, Esquire, has a rather sensible list of suggestions for attorneys for their “fall cleaning” in his column at Above the Law. Out of respect for his copyright I will list only three of his 15 suggestions here:

1. If you have an office, or even a desk, take every single thing off the top. I did this the other day….

…

8. Those business cards in a rubber band you’ve collected over the past year? Find three people and connect with them in person. Throw the rest out. (Here come the “never throw out a business card” crowd.) Throw them out, now.

…

10. Revisit your local bar associations. Would meeting a few more lawyers in your town kill you? You don’t have to be on the board. You can go to a lunch or two, attend a few social events, or pick a project to develop.

The original is worth ten minutes of your time; go check it out.
