Download or read book The Attorney s Networking Handbook written by Steve Fretzin and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I asked my father, a retired attorney, what he did back in the day to develop new business for his law practice. He looked at me with confusion and said, "Nothing. I was a very good attorney. My phone rang and there was the business." How many attorneys can still say that? The reality is that developing a book of business has never been more challenging and more important than in today's competitively charged environment. To put a finer point on this, ask a group of legal recruiters about changing law firms and they will ask you the same initial question, "What size is your book?" Unfortunately, your ability to develop business is now more important than what law school you graduated or even your level of experience as a lawyer. As you may have heard, networking is one of the best ways to grow a legal practice. Most attorneys know this, but either haven't tried yet or have already experienced the time sucking void that networking can become. Time is money. Being efficient and process-oriented with how you network is half the battle. The Attorney's Networking Handbook was specifically written to help lawyers take the guesswork out of networking. The book includes proven methodologies, engaging stories and critical take-aways that will allow you to get actual results from your time invested.

BLS Law Notes, 11.16.12 Lawyers at Work reveals what it means and what it takes to be a satisfied, sane, and successful lawyer in today’s tough legal marketplace. Through incisive in-depth interviews, a top legal headhunter gives the 3rd degree to 15 successful lawyers who run the gamut of the legal profession. Practice areas represented in these profiles range from employment discrimination to corporate defense, from federal white collar prosecution to the legal structuring of complex derivative instruments, from antitrust in DC to trusts & estates in Florida, from divorce in New York to international mergers in Paris, from intellectual property in Silicon Valley to creeping expropriation in India, and from entertainment law in Hollywood to welfare rights in the Bronx. Law firm sizes range from one of the biggest in the world with over two thousand lawyers to a one-lawyer general practice. Career levels range from biglaw partners and courtroom superstars to mid-level associates and ex-lawyers. Though many of the interviewees in Lawyers at Work are generic adversaries, the interviewer brings out commonalities in their ways of working, methods of reasoning, and sources of personal motivation. Readers hear from the practitioner’s own unbuttoned lips about their career formation, daily work grind, victories and setbacks, guiding principles, professional rewards, and practical advice for aspiring lawyers.
