Are you looking for tips on how to scale your law firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer podcast, Tyson chats with Miriam Airington-Fisher, an immigration lawyer, on her journey in the legal field. Miriam shares her transition from criminal defense to immigration law, and the difficulties she faced becoming a single parent while starting her own law firm.

Miriam shares some insights on the need to maintain a positive marketing approach. It is important to be consistent and not overly conservative when it comes to marketing your firm.

Growing a firm can be a tough feat, but Miriam provides tips on how to do it strategically.
