#LMA22: Join Me As We Stretch Beyond, Together, At The Legal Marketing Association Annual Conference – JD Supra
Looking for new posts summarizing the #LMA22 conference? Head down to the green headings below for new content added regularly. Dont forget to let me know if Ive missed anything, okay? Thanks!
Its time!
Wow, it has been a long last few years. In my world, it has been both great and odd. Business has been very good, but the pandemic has turned a few things upside down, sideways, or some other way that I cant adequately describe. I think you know what I mean because youve lived it, too.
The pandemic caused conferences to be canceled or to move online. Virtual conferences are better than no conferences, but I prefer seeing my colleagues in person.
If you know me, and even if you dont, about this time of year, I typically begin to get excited. Im happy to say that I can say that again!
Why?
Because I will be attending the largest professional family reunion of 500 1000 very smart marketing and business development professionals in Las Vegas at the 2022 Legal Marketing Association annual conference, affectionately known by its hashtag, #LMA22.
I attend because this is our association, LMAs, annual international conference for all of us who care passionately about helping lawyers, legal marketers, and law firms grow and do what they do better.
As I have done in 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2014, and 2014, I will be curating or creating content and linking to it from this blog post to provide a quick, easy place to find all of the information you might like to consume. I will also link to content from others that is written, or via voice or video. I will do this before, during, and after the conference. Stay tuned as this post will change frequently.
Please bookmark this blog post as I will continue to add content as I find it, or as you let me know youve found it, too!
Here are a few details about the conference:
A conference while trying to emerge from a pandemic is no small endeavor.
The muscle behind this conference is the Legal Marketing Association, or LMA, and our international board of directors.

There are 5 pre-conference programs you might want to consider. Im sure you can still register right here, and I feel fairly certain they will all provide high-quality insight and discussion you will find useful in your career. If you would like to attend a pre-con program and are unable to attend the entire conference, use the code LMAPRC212 to bypass registration of the entire conference.
Again, you might want to bookmark this post as this is where I will be curating all of the content I and others will be creating about the conference. I will also add an important links section titled in green below so you dont have to search for them elsewhere.
As always, if you see audio, video, or written content for me to add to this post, please ping me wherever it is convenient for you:
