In addition to his work as an author and speaker, Michael is the publisher of Groton-Mystic Neighbors in Mystic, CT, founder of The Crisis Control Group, and Vice President of the Groton Rotary Club. In 2014, Michael Whitehouse came to Groton, Connecticut knowing no one but his soon-to-be-wife, Michael has created a network of people around the area, across all industries and occupations. With the help of his connections, Michael has launched a local publication in Mystic, with two more in development. He has assisted in raising thousands of dollars for local charitable organizations. He has helped business people make connections, helped people find jobs, and helped people connect with skills and resources that they needed. Michael is not some kind of super networker.

Program Description
It is an attorney's duty to their client to provide the best advice and representation possible. While attorneys bring their expertise in the law to the attorney-client relationship, they may also be supporting clients in various aspects of their business and life. A strong network allows attorneys to offer service beyond their experience, giving them a strong back bench of knowledge to call upon for advice or for appropriate referrals. Networking is also the best way to acquire clients who will trust and rely upon your legal advice.
By being a resource of referrals and connections, an attorney is better able to build his/her business while supporting the needs of his/her clients and the community at large. Whether you are just entering the field, looking for a change, or searching for ways to expand your skills at making connections and finding resources, Mr. Whitehouse provides ideas and techniques that will help you make an impact on the business of your firm. He will discuss the importance of connections, personal branding and similar topics, will provide real-life examples of success, and will address the questions that matter to you in these areas.
