The Board of Governors has approved a three-month “beta test” of an IT helpline that would be promoted to solo and small firms who need routine remote computer software and technology support.

At a January 29 virtual meeting, board members voted unanimously to approve a contract with Law Tech Partners for a three-month experiment. Details of the contract are not yet final.

“The anticipated target audience is the Solo and Small Firm Section because that seemed the most logical,” said Board Technology Committee Chair Jay Kim.
