Camp “I’m delighted to be here as a solo practitioner who is a mediator, as well as an attorney. I’m hoping to come here to fi nd things that’ll help my practice be more secure, but also a lot more effi cient and mobile. I’m based in Virginia Beach, but I practice through-out the Tidewater area.” Sally J. Moore , attorney and Shannon McManus , Firm Administrator. Moore: “I wanted to come because we have a small to midsize fi rm and we are trying to increase our technology and effi ciency to keep up with the rapid change of the 21st century.” McManus: “I want to make sure that we are competitive, and that our tech resources are compatible with which-ever path we choose to grow on. Our fi rm is McKenry Dancigers Dawson in Virginia Beach and for the most part we do primarily insurance defense, a little personal injury and some business and maritime law.” Melissa Jackson Howell “I practice employment law with the Howell Law Group in Norfolk. I’m now in my seventh year of having my own practice, and I just want to make sure that our fi rm has the most current and updated tech information to be able to offer to our clients the most effi cient and current services that we possibly can.” Seth B. Royster “Well, with the legal profession, we tend to move a little slower than a lot of other professions and technology is rapidly changing the world we live in. So, I fi gured this would be a good opportunity to see how technol-ogy is impacting the legal profession and hopefully come away from it better informed. I’m from Portsmouth, at Cooper Spong & Davis, where I do a mix of real estate, corporate law and some litigation.” Natalie Harris “I work with Cognicion in Richmond. We’re an eDiscovery services provider. I came today to receive your CLE credit particularly. And I attend the Techshow because it focuses on the growing area of technology and law. And it helps too, to keep you more aware of the advancements in this area. This is my second year here, and I really enjoy it.” The Hon. Cleo E. Powell of the Supreme Court of Virginia with VSB President Leonard C. Heath at the Techshow. Join us at the VSB Techshow next year on April 27, 2020, at the Greater Richmond Convention Center.
