Ultimately, human beings are adaptable animals; and so, it’s no surprise that new businesses continue to crop up, even as the coronavirus pandemic is ongoing.  Perhaps surprisingly, a number of those new businesses are law firms – even as attorneys remain generally risk-averse.  And, the same thing happened during the 2008-2009 recession, when lots of attorneys launched new law firms, many of which are now quite successful.

Of course, if you’re looking to launch a law firm, it still helps to know what you’re doing.  That’s why we’re launching this three-part series on starting a law firm, focused on the main components you need to be thinking about to build a new firm successfully.  In the first place, you need the right technology; and, the good news is that you can access cloud technology at a minimum investment, which reduces your overhead substantially.  Next, you need to make sure you have a marketing plan focused on the needs of modern legal consumers; in other words: can you become a rainmaker?  Lastly, you need to get your financial house in order, and not just for trust accounting; you’ll want to build out revenue projections and a budget.  That’s a lot to do; but, you have to start somewhere, so start here.

Learn how to build a modern law firm, and maybe this is actually your best idea ever.
