Image via WikipediaThanks to Patrick Lamb and his site In Search of Perfect Client Service for pointing this one out. Paul Lippe at Legal On Ramp (legal social networking platform) is opening up the site to assist attorneys who have become the victims of the economic downturn:
At Legal OnRamp, we're concerned about the recent layoffs of associates in large firms, but also optimistic that this will give those lawyers an opportunity to adapt to the world that's emerging. As such, even though Legal OnRamp is primarily for inhouse lawyers, we are inviting associates who are being laid off to join. We are putting together a career center with a variety of resources, we have a number of job listings, and will support various networking and skills development activities. We have extended that offer directly to the firms and welcome individuals to contact us as well. Just indicate which firm you are being laid off from when you request an invitation at www.legalonramp.com.
