Renaissance Lawyer Society's website was our greatest contribution to the movement. The website was filled with hundreds of pages of informational text and links. We received over 100,000 visitors to our website in 2003 and 2004 and traffic was brisk for years afterwards, even as the movement grew too fast to keep up with updating the website.

Several board members have published articles in bar journals (see, for example, the February, 2004 cover article in the Washington Bar News, http://www.wsba.org/media/publications/barnews/2004/feb-04-default.htm). The organization has received attention from local, state and national print media and was mentioned on the Paul Harvey nationally syndicated radio show in 2004 when Paul Harvey discussed current President, Maureen Holland's law practice, which he'd read about in the Christian Science Monitor. Previous articles have appeared in IONS magazine, Science of Mind, and in many bar journals. Founding board members Dolly Garlo, Kevin Ginsberg, and Kim Wright wrote contributions to the fifth edition of Deborah Arron's popular What Can You Do With a Law Degree? (Decision Books, 2004). Dozens of law school websites link students to our website, and many students find out about us from many law professors who are members and/or supporters. Students from law schools have formed their own student organizations, some self named, some under the umbrella of Renaissance Lawyer Society.

The organization's other offerings have been conferences, teleclasses, and CLE's, as well as, probably most valuable of all, networking between like-minded attorneys.

From our humble and modest roots, Renaissance Lawyer Society has been an important hub in a movement that has taken off. For the last two years, the board has been in a place of reflection, examining what is the role of a catalyst after the movement has spread. With the launch of founder, J. Kim Wright's CuttingEdgeLaw.com, the information previously provided by the web site now has a dynamic presence that can be continually updated. RLS is standing on the brink, looking to see what is the next step to create Innovation and Transformation in the practice of law.

In March, 2009, we reconstituted the board. With Kate Carter at the helm, we're revisiting our role in the movement. Kevin Ginsberg, a founding board member who has served from the beginning, remains on the board. Kim Schavey joins as a new member and J. Kim Wright has returned as a board member.

Stay tuned!
