The way we practiced law drastically shifted during the height of the pandemic. Meetings went virtual, and you may have found yourself chatting with clients while sporting your favorite yoga pants (unbeknownst to them, of course!) E-signatures became the norm, and you harnessed the power of organizing files digitally. And while you didn’t go to […]
To many, the solopreneur life is risky. Some believe it’s a lot of smoke and mirrors and others believe it’s only reserved for those born rich.

One of the main reasons I see my clients question the entrepreneur lifestyle is because they’re worried about how much they have to spend on their business. But like with oh-so many things in life, it’s all about perspective! As an employee, you weren’t responsible for your employer’s business expenses but you were paying for […]

So, let’s dive right into how to strategically find prospective clients and book engagements. First, we’ll begin with a trip down memory lane. Remember “IRAC” (Issue, Rule, […]
If you feel like work/life balance and the practice of law are like water and oil—you’re not alone.
