My series on starting your own law firm is now live!
This site is devoted to the practice of law, but the companion site — YourOwnLawFirm.com — deals primarily with law firm marketing. This series is in response to all of you who wrote to say, “You know, Aaron, that law firm marketing stuff is all fine and good, but I need to know how to start the law firm in the first place.” (You were all actually far more articulate.)
The series is still a work in progress, but there is already a lot of information you should find useful, even if your law firm is already up an running. I’m pretty good about thinking outside the box, but in looking back on some of my foibles, I realize I sometimes took action based on nothing beyond the fact that I thought everyone else was doing it that way. Getting a look into how someone else runs their office can often lead to improvements in your own procedures.
Ultimately, I’m going to package all of these articles into a book, but you’ll get it all here first. Your comments and suggestions are welcome.
To start the series, go to the right sidebar on this page, and look for the Starting Your Own Law Firm Series. I suggest beginning at the beginning, but of course you are free to go to whatever article interests you. If you’re on a mobile device, the sidebar may not be visible, so just click on this link to go to the first article in the series.
I hope you enjoy what you read, and that you are able to apply it to your own practice, old or new.
