Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You became a lawyer to help people and have a great life. Instead, you're working insane hours, not making the money you had hoped, and are not fulfilled by your life as a lawyer. Ali Katz was struggling with the same issues while also being a single mom who needed control of her calendar. When she saw major flaws in the way lawyers, like herself, were taught to serve families and small business owners, she decided to do something about it. Ali developed a new way to practice law-one that puts relationships before transactions. And while that made her happy, the icing on the cake was that she started generating over $1 million annually in just three years, all while going to her office just three days a week. Now, Ali brings this knowledge and experience to bear in The New Law Business Model. If you're a lawyer, there's no need to abandon your dreams. In this book, Ali shows how to use your most valuable asset-your law degree-for the good of families, small businesses, and most importantly, your well-being. Pulling from her own journey, Ali shares the roadmap she followed and insights she found that made her success possible. The old law business model is broken. It's time to replace it with one that works for you, your family, and your clients. It's time to take back your time, your income, and your humanity. The New Law Business Model was created to guide inspired lawyers like you into a new era.

Download or read book Remix Strategy written by Benjamin Gomes-Casseres and published by Harvard Business Review Press. This book was released on 2015-08-11 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Create and capture value, no matter what path you've chosen. How to Create Joint Value Alliances, partnerships, acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures are no longer the exception in most businesses—they are part of the core strategy. As managers look to external partners for resources and capabilities, they need a practical roadmap to ensure that these relationships will create value for their firm. They must answer questions like these: Which business combinations do we need? How should we govern them? Will their results justify our investments? Benjamin Gomes-Casseres explains how companies create value by “remixing” resources with other companies. Based on decades of consulting and academic research, Remix Strategy shows how three laws shape the success of any business combination: • First Law: The combination must have the potential to create more value than the parties could create on their own. Which elements from each business need to be combined to create joint value? • Second Law: The combination must be designed and managed to realize the joint value. Which partners best fit our strategic goals? How should we manage the integration? • Third Law: The value earned by the parties must motivate them to contribute to the collaboration. How will we share the joint value created? Will the returns shift over time? Supported by examples from a wide range of industries and companies, and filled with practical tools for applying the three laws, this book helps managers design and lead a coherent strategy for creating joint value with outside partners.
Download or read book Law Capitalism written by Curtis J. Milhaupt and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent high-profile corporate scandals—such as those involving Enron in the United States, Yukos in Russia, and Livedoor in Japan—demonstrate challenges to legal regulation of business practices in capitalist economies. Setting forth a new analytic framework for understanding these problems, Law and Capitalism examines such contemporary corporate governance crises in six countries, to shed light on the interaction of legal systems and economic change. This provocative book debunks the simplistic view of law’s instrumental function for financial market development and economic growth. Using comparative case studies that address the United States, China, Germany, Japan, Korea, and Russia, Curtis J. Milhaupt and Katharina Pistor argue that a disparate blend of legal and nonlegal mechanisms have supported economic growth around the world. Their groundbreaking findings show that law and markets evolve together in a “rolling relationship,” and legal systems, including those of the most successful economies, therefore differ significantly in their organizational characteristics. Innovative and insightful, Law and Capitalism will change the way lawyers, economists, policy makers, and business leaders think about legal regulation in an increasingly global market for capital and corporate governance.
