Ep. 156 - Creating a Subscription-Based Virtual Law Practice - with Kimberly Bennett
Kimberly Bennett runs a boutique trademark and business strategy practice out of Atlanta that provides a subscription service for businesses all around the country. It is a flat fee for virtual general counsel law services, and it just might offer a glimpse at the future of professional service business models. I’d never really considered a subscription-based business model for law firms before talking to Kimberly, and it really was an eye-opening conversation for me – and I think it will be for many of you, too. She’s really passionate about driving the industry forward and changing some of our traditional law firm mindsets, and I am all for it.

Chris Godfrey is an estate planning and elder law attorney out of South Bend, Indiana, which is also where he studied law at Notre Dame after competing as a professional football player for nine years.

Ep. 152 - Going Straight from Law School to Solo Practice - with Kate DeNobile
All the way back in episode 7, Lynette Whitfield discussed an incubator called Law Entrepreneurs for Action (LEAP) designed to help recent law school graduates go directly into private practice. Well, today, we’re talking to a young solo attorney who got her start in one of these incubator programs: Kate DeNobile. Kate now has a thriving practice, DeNobile Law, and we talk about how the incubator process helped prepare her for running a solo practice straight out of law school, why she chose to work a side gig while her practice was getting up and running, and the technology she uses to run her practice.

Ep. 149 - PR for Anyone - with Christina Daves
Christina Daves is a self-taught publicity expert and the author of PR for Anyone: 100+ Affordable Ways to Easily Create Buzz. She can help just about anyone get more attention from media outlets, which is an area that small firm practitioners are woefully underserved. You might think that the only opportunities for small firm practitioners to get media publicity are that interview on the courthouse steps or getting lucky enough to be invited onto the news as an expert, but there are more opportunities than you might think – and Christina is going to help us uncover them.

Ep. 148 - Creating a Solo Commercial Business Litigation Practice - with Margeaux Thomas
Margeaux Thomas is a solo practitioner who specializes in commercial business litigation, and I thought it would be interesting to get the perspective of a solo practitioner who isn’t in one of the more typical practice areas of estate planning, family law, or personal injury. Margeaux offers an interesting perspective on overcoming the trials and tribulations of opening a practice – including the impressive feat of launching a solo practice with twins on the way! – and how she’s been able to keep growing the business.
