Legal Services of Southern Missouri (LSOSM) is offering free Continuing Legal Education (CLE) events to attorneys who are part of their Judicare and Volunteer Lawyer Panels. Judicare Panel members are attorneys who have agreed to handle LSOSM cases for a reduced fee. Volunteer Lawyer Panel members are attorneys who have agreed to handle LSOSM cases free of charge. CLEs are offered one of two different ways: First, LSOSM uses video conferencing between their offices. Video conferencing allows interactivity among all offices, so that participants in one office may speak with and see presenters in another office. Attorneys wishing to have interaction with the presenter may choose to attend the CLE event at one of the LSOSM offices. Second, LSOSM uses live web streaming. By taking the video feed from a video conference session, LSOSM can then stream that to anyone connected to the Internet. Participants using this method may not, unfortunately, interact directly with the session presenters, but may have the ability to e-mail questions they have to a presenter for their response. Participants choosing this method will be required to have certain technology available to them, including access to a computer with a high speed Internet connection and a streaming media client such as Windows Media Player.
