Through the Harpeth Hall School’s Winterim program, high school senior Elisabeth Nelson spent three weeks with the firm to learn what a career in law can look like.

Farrar and Moore Complete “Scaling Small Law”

The Tennessee Center for Estate & Elder Law, PLLC is always working to refine its clients’ experience at the firm. To that end, co-founders Amy Farrar and Amanda Moore completed the award-winning Scaling Small Law program. Hosted by the Tennessee Bar Association, this program focused on business education and practice growth. Created with entrepreneurial lawyers and newly formed small firms in mind, the program included roundtable discussions, training sessions, and assignments on topics ranging from business planning and finance to law practice management and digital marketing. This course pushed its participants to look strategically at the development of their law firms in areas like client experiences and technology use. Such work gave Farrar and Moore further tools to continue to work on their firm instead of just in their firm.

Scaling Small Law just received the Excellence Award in Continuing Education from the Tennessee Society of Association Executives. Farrar and Moore were honored to have been in the inaugural class.
