Next week, the Legal Rebels ‘09 Tour will be visiting an expert on going solo.On Tuesday, Sept. 15, an ABA Journal team will talk to Susan Cartier Liebel, the solo practice evangelist who founded Solo Practice University, a website providing support and resources to those practicing alone or in small firms.

Tell us, what, if anything, is holding you back from hanging your own shingle?
