464. AI and the Law: Building a Future-Proof Practice with Tom Martin
AI isn’t just changing the way you work—it’s redefining what it means to practice law.In this episode of The Law Entrepreneur, guest host Mike Smith sits down with Tom Martin, lawyer, founder of LawDroid, and longtime legal tech innovator, to explore how you can leverage artificial intelligence to make your firm more efficient, more human, and more scalable.You’ll hear how Tom has integrated AI into everything from client communication to document generation, and how he’s helping lawyers reimagine their business models from the ground up. Whether you’re cautious or curious about AI, this conversation will challenge you to see what’s possible—and remind you that the future of law isn’t about replacing lawyers, but empowering them to serve clients better than ever.Key Takeaways from Mike and Tom:1. Skepticism Is No Longer an OptionAI has moved beyond novelty—it’s now essential to the way law is practiced.Holding back out of caution only delays growth; embracing AI as a daily tool is what separates those adapting from those falling behind.2. Simplicity Drives AdoptionThe real breakthrough in AI comes when it’s easy to use.Lawyers don’t need to learn prompt engineering—they need tools that make automation intuitive, turning complex capabilities into straightforward workflows.3. Automation Expands Access and ScaleBy automating repetitive filings and forms, firms can cut costs while serving more clients efficiently.This shift not only increases profitability but also broadens access to justice by removing traditional bottlenecks.4. Efficiency Creates Space for EmpathyWhen routine work runs itself, time opens up for what clients truly value—listening, empathy, and clear communication.In this way, technology doesn’t replace the human element; it strengthens it.5. Specialization Is the New MoatAs AI handles the standard tasks, depth of expertise becomes the real differentiator.Lawyers who dig deep into specialized areas and integrate technology strategically will build practices that are both future-proof and uniquely valuable. "AI is going to subsume a lot of stuff, but the things around the corners, the real niches that go deep, having that human element can be extremely important." — Tom MartinResources & Mentions:LawAnswers.AI – Free AI legal information for the publicSiteCheck.AI – Verify your legal citations with AIDepositron – Demand letters to recover rental depositsGet in touch with Tom Martin:Website: https://www.lawdroid.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomasgmartinTom’s Substack newsletter and podcast: https://lawdroidmanifesto.com🚀 Want to SCALE your law firm?

463. The Three C’s That Make or Break Every Hire with Emily Geddes
Struggling to hire the right people—or worse, stuck with mis-hires who drain your time and energy?In this episode, Bridgit Norris sits down with Emily Geddes, an attorney licensed in Washington and Idaho, business strategist with an MBA, and adjunct professor at Gonzaga Law who graduated first in her class.Emily brings a rare perspective to the intersection of law, business, and leadership, shaped by years in business consulting, healthcare administration, and now transactional and real estate law at Malek + Malek.Together, she and Bridgit unpack how to hire with values at the center, build teams you can actually trust, and turn hiring from a dreaded chore into a growth tool for your firm.If you’re tired of playing roulette with your hires, this conversation will show you how to create clarity, avoid costly mistakes, and build a culture that lasts.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Emily:1. Start with Values, Not ResumesHiring starts long before the interview.When your mission and values are clear and visible, you naturally attract candidates who share your vision and filter out those who don’t.2. Use the Three C’s FrameworkCompetence gets someone in the door, but character and chemistry determine whether they thrive.By looking beyond skills, you create space for integrity, humility, and teamwork to guide your decisions.3. Treat Hiring as a Team SportA hiring process that includes staff and peers gives you a fuller picture of a candidate.This not only uncovers red flags but also strengthens buy-in from the people who will work with them every day.4. Prioritize Communication and TransparencyClear expectations and open conversations prevent issues from escalating.Addressing concerns right away allows for training or mentoring—and, when needed, timely decisions to part ways.5. Humanize the Hiring ProcessEvery interaction leaves an impression.Closing the loop with candidates, even with a simple note, demonstrates respect and reinforces the kind of culture you want to be known for. "Close the loop. These are human beings who have feelings… even a quick email or a quick phone call saying, hey, we decided we’re not hiring for this position—it sets you apart as a good place to work." — Emily GeddesGet in touch with Emily Geddes:Website: http://malekattorneys.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emilyhgeddes/🚀 Want to SCALE your law firm?

462. Stop Tipping Uncle Sam: Tax Strategies Every Attorney Must Know with Frank Rekas
If you’re a law firm owner who feels like you’re working harder but keeping less, this conversation is going to hit home. Bridgit Norris sits down with Frank Rekas, a CPFA with 34 years in financial services who serves as a “Personal CFO” to attorneys and has earned the nickname “The Tax Whisperer.” Frank’s not just another advisor—he’s built a systematic approach to help lawyers minimize taxes, protect assets, and grow wealth with purpose.From uncovering hidden leaks in your finances to strategies for building generational wealth, Frank reveals why winging it with your money is costing you more than you realize.Stick around, because this episode gives you the clarity and confidence to finally make your money work as hard as you do.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Frank:1. Stop Winging It With Your FinancesMany attorneys bring in strong revenue but fail to track or plan their money, leaving them vulnerable to overspending, missed deductions, and tax surprises.Building even small proactive systems gives you control instead of chaos.2. Proactive Tax Planning Beats Reactive ReturnsMost CPAs look backwards, filing returns instead of helping clients plan ahead.Frank stresses the value of collaborating with proactive tax professionals who align entity structure, retirement contributions, and deductions to keep more money in your pocket.3. The Right Retirement Plan Unlocks Big SavingsA simple 401(k) often isn’t enough for high-earning attorneys.Leveraging cash balance or defined benefit plans can allow six-figure contributions, creating massive tax savings while building long-term wealth.4. Protect and Pass on Generational WealthThrough approaches like the Rockefeller method, life insurance can be more than protection—it can become a tool for passing down wealth across generations and putting your heirs in a stronger financial position than you started with.5. The First Step Is Deciding to ActWhether you’re new or twenty years into practice, it’s never too late to put the right plans in place.Progress starts with one intentional step—like a 30-minute call with an advisor—to begin turning scattered finances into a strategy. "Every decision has a consequence—even not doing something is a decision." — Frank RekasGet in touch with Frank:Website: https://palmwealthpartners.com/Email: frank@palmwealthpartners.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frankrekas/Book time to meet with Frank🚀 Want to SCALE your law firm?

460. LinkedIn for Lawyers: Why ‘Playing Professional’ is Killing Your Brand with Jimmy Lai
If you’ve ever worried that you or your law practice are “too boring” to stand out, this conversation will change how you see yourself—and your marketing.In this episode, Bridgit sits down with Jimmy Lai, CEO of Lai & Turner Law in Oklahoma, where he helps immigrants secure U.S. visas to start, scale, and succeed in the U.S. But if you follow him online, you know him as the founder of the Unforgettable Professionals community—a space where so-called “boring” professionals learn to tell stories that attract clients, build authority, and actually make them unforgettable.Together, they dive into how Jimmy turned everyday experiences into content that resonates, why doubling down on one channel creates faster growth, and what consistency really looks like if you want lasting results.By the end, you’ll see LinkedIn not as another task to manage, but as a powerful tool to transform your brand—and maybe even yourself.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Jimmy:1. Pick One Channel and Double DownIt’s tempting to try every platform at once, but growth comes from focusing on the channel that drives the biggest return.Once you know what works, reinvest in it before scattering your energy elsewhere.2. Storytelling Beats Legalese Every TimePeople don’t connect with case updates—they connect with real stories, even small moments from daily life.Share personal, authentic content alongside authority-building posts to stay memorable.3. Nail the Hook or Lose the ReaderOn LinkedIn, the first three lines decide whether someone clicks “see more.”Spark curiosity right away, and keep paragraphs short and skimmable to respect busy professionals’ attention spans.4. Optimize Your Profile Like a Sales PageDon’t waste your headline with “Immigration Attorney.”Use clear, client-focused language that says who you help and how, so people immediately know why they should connect with you.5. Consistency Compounds into AuthorityOne post won’t change your career, but consistent posting builds trust and recognition over time.Think long game—like SEO for your personal brand—and watch opportunities multiply. "You can be the best attorney in the world, but if no one knows you, if they don't like you, and if they don't trust you, you're going to struggle with business." — Jimmy LaiGet in touch with Jimmy Lai:Website: https://www.laiturnerlaw.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimmylai-jdmba/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ThatAttorneyLai/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thatattorneylai/🚀 Want to SCALE your law firm?

459. The Psychology of Legal Leadership: Creating Safe Cultures While Managing Compliance with Karen Ansen
What if the secret to scaling your firm isn’t hiring more staff but stripping it back to the essentials?In this powerful episode, Bridgit Norris sits down with Karen Ansen, Principal Lawyer and Founder of Ignite HR and Employment Law, who brings over 20 years of experience guiding high-pressure organizations through complex employment law while building cultures where people actually thrive.Today, she runs a lean, highly profitable practice from Australia’s East Coast, handling some of the toughest employee relations cases without the chaos of a big team.You’ll hear how she reclaimed her health, freedom, and profit by redefining growth on her own terms—and why you can too.This conversation isn’t about theory; it’s about practical choices that could help you build a firm that serves your life instead of consuming it.If you’ve ever wondered whether “more” is really worth it, this episode will change the way you think about success.Key Takeaways from Bridgit and Karen:1. Consider Scaling Back Instead of UpGrowth isn’t always about adding more people; it can also mean reducing complexity.By streamlining, you make space to focus on the work that delivers the most value and satisfaction.2. Guard Your Time RelentlesslyYour time is your most limited resource, and boundaries are what protect it.When you control your availability, you preserve energy while still serving clients effectively.3. Price to Reflect Value, Not Just DemandA quick “yes” from a client often signals underpricing.Adjusting fees upward reinforces your worth and ensures your practice stays financially healthy.4. Build Psychological Safety Into CultureHigh-performing teams don’t thrive on pressure alone; they thrive on trust.When people feel safe to speak openly, they contribute more and stay longer.5. Align Your Firm With Your Life GoalsSuccess is hollow if it costs your health or peace of mind.When your business is designed around your life priorities, freedom and profit can exist together. "You ask every single business owner that ever started a business, they want freedom. That’s all they want. It is freedom. The problem is that the business itself becomes your prison, in some ways." — Karen AnsenGet in touch with Karen Ansen:Website: http://www.ignitehr.com.au/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ignitehrlawLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenansen/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ignite_hr_/🚀 Want to SCALE your law firm?
