Texas Legal Checklists
Pilots and accountants
have long relied on checklists to avoid omissions. Your legal work deserves
the same care, especially if you handle a variety of practice areas.
Bring order and method to
your practice, tackle new areas with confidence, and avoid omissions and
wasted effort with the task checklists in Cindy Stormer’s Small-Firm

big jobs like probating a will, filing a divorce, forming a corporation,
preparing for trial, and dozens more into manageable tasks. You
