Are you a law firm owner looking for strategies to build a better business? In this episode of Maximum Lawyer, Tyson interviews Jonathan Hawkins, an attorney specializing in advising law firms on business management and legal strategy. Jonathan shares practical insights on building strong client retainer agreements, protecting against associate turnover, and planning for partnership transitions.

Jonathan shares some strategies law firms need to use to protect themselves when associates leave and take clients with them. One thing to embed in your processes is establishing partnership agreements with lawyers you hire. This is a way to outline stipulations as it relates to a lawyer leaving and taking a client. Though a client has the ultimate choice, it can be included in an agreement that a lawyer should not encourage their client to leave with them. As a firm owner, this protects your downside and provides you with some sort of protection when it comes to losing clients.

Tyson and Jonathan chat about value drivers for law firms and how owners can enhance their practice when it comes time to sell. A big value driver for a potential buyer are the employees. If a new owner is looking to take over, having solid employees and a good leadership team will attract someone to jump in. It will make the transition much smoother and leave the buyer feeling confident in their decision. Another value driver are marketing systems. If your firm has great systems to market itself, someone will be more inclined to buy because they see the dedication that exists within the firm and how it presents itself.

Are you a law firm looking to adopt AI within their firm? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews Dan Schnurbusch about the evolving landscape of legal case management tools and the impact of AI on the legal profession. Dan shares his experiences with platforms like Clio, Monday.com, and Airtable, emphasizing the need for flexible, integrated solutions.

Case management tools in law firms are essential to streamlining processes and ensuring that cases are dealt with effectively. Dan shares the lack of available all in one legal software solutions. Using different softwares for bookkeeping, case management and report writing can cause issues in automation and efficiency for firms. It is costly to have multiple softwares and many companies are still working on creating comprehensive tools for law firms.

Dan and Tyson discuss the future of law as it relates to AI. Statistics show that the cost of AI has decreased, compared to other sectors. This means that it is possible for more AI tools to emerge to help different sectors do their work faster and more efficiently. Dan shares his opinion that AI can help everyone do their work and sectors that refuse to adopt AI will suffer compared to companies that do.

Are you a lawyer looking for topics in being transparent and present? In this episode of the Maximum Lawyer Podcast, Tyson interviews attorney Ruma Mazumdar, who transitioned from commercial litigation to founding a remote law firm during the pandemic. They discuss the motivations behind this career shift, the challenges and benefits of remote work, and strategies for maintaining transparency and a positive team culture.

Ruma shares how her litigation experience helps her in real estate law, especially when going through the dispute process. The transition into real estate was smoother for Ruma due to her litigation background, which helps her resolve disputes very early one before they get heated. For those who are hoping to transition into an area of law that is not heavy in court battles, experience in litigation can help with getting deals or cases settled quicker and can help in attracting clients.

Ruma speaks to the importance of being present with clients, especially working in a post-COVID environment where many offices are fully remote. When working with clients, giving them your full attention helps with gaining their trust. A client is looking to you to help them resolve their issues and if you are not present, it can cause clients to feel like you don't care about their case or you don't know how to manage your time and responsibilities. Ensure to always remain present with each client so you can be the best lawyer possible!
