OPENING YOUR OWN LAW FIRM? Why Lawyering Will Be The Smallest Part Of Your Day

Описание: When talking to attorneys who want to open their own law firm, one of the conversations I have with them as their coach is to ensure they understand that lawyering is the smallest part of what they'll do. Why? Because they are a business owner first. Lawyer second. If your practice is a consumer practice like mine is, the biggest part of my day, on average, is sales. I have to continually be closing sales to ensure my law firm continues to operate smoothly.

If you want to learn more about the business side of owning a law firm, and how to start thinking with your business owner hat and not just your lawyer hat, then today's video is for you!

Bio: As a coach and consultant for lawyers, my goal is to help them run successful law firms in a way that fits into how they want to live their lives. As a law firm owner since 2016, and a mom of two young children, I understand how easy it is for lawyers to prioritize their work, their clients, and their families, but put themselves on the backburner. I approach my coaching and consulting practice by looking at the attorney as a whole person, and bringing a sense of humanness to the legal profession. There’s a way for lawyers to have successful law firms, make money, but also have time for things that are important to them outside of work, including making time for ourselves.

Calendar: Google Calendar. Hands down. The best calendar system ever.

Calendaring System: Calendly

Project management: Asana. I love having everything in one place and my paralegal and I always have a snapshot of what needs to be done and when.

Virtual Receptionist: I use Smith AI. This is a great way to ensure your phones get answered while reducing distractions.

Billing software: I currently use MyCase (I’ve previously used Smokeball, Practice Panther, and Clio).

Website: I use Findlaw for my law firm, but starting out, I used Squarespace. They have amazing designs and it’s only like $120/year!

Cloud storage: Dropbox. Hands down. Pay for the business version.

PDFs: Pay for the Adobe Pro. Totally worth it.

Virtual phone number: Grasshopper. Such a life saver! I can use my personal number and through the Grasshopper app, I can call and text clients through my work’s virtual phone number.

Fax: Yes, people and companies still fax :) Metrofax has been great.
