Ever received an email from an opposing counsel and felt your chest tighten? Or dreaded going to court because you knew opposing counsel was going to say or do something you considered unethical or devious? Just about every lawyer has experienced this. Not addressing the problem can cause procrastination, rumination, wasting time complaining to people about their behavior, over-drinking, over-eating, and losing sleep over interactions with a single opposing counsel. We also can’t think as clearly, so simple solutions to problems are harder for our brain to find. We can begin to think we’re not cut out for the law or litigation and doubt our abilities. If we don’t know the root cause of these feelings, we can believe it’s the opposing counsel that’s causing them. That’s a lot of power to give to someone on the other side of counsel table. In this episode of Be a Better Lawyer Podcast, learn how to handle difficult opposing counsel in a way that puts you in the driver's seat.

Diagnosing and solving next level problems in your law practice is the difference between feeling overwhelmed and calm.

In this episode of Be a Better Lawyer Podcast, you'll: learn why our brains are usually oblivious to the next-level problemlearn how to tell the difference between superficial and next-level problemsget real-life case studies to see the difference understanding the next-level problem will make in the results you get for your law practice Listen in to think differently about how you strategize your next move in your practice.

This episode is for the lawyer who wants to continuously improve their life. I'm sharing with you the top ten time and money investments I've made this year, and there's definitely several in here that are easy tweaks to improve your life a bit. And some that can be transformative. As I reviewed some of my best investments in both time and money this year, I found some unexpected things. One is that there's a link between the top 10 investments of time and money this year: they all helped me with my sense of well-being and my productivity. Second, most of the investments I'll share with you have nothing to do with productivity, but they made me more productive anyway. Why? They increased the overall quality of my life, which in turn made me more productive. You'll learn why in this episode. Third, a few of the investments I mention weren't even on my radar as something that could improve my life, but once I spent the time/money for it, it radically transformed an aspect of my life. Listen in and choose one -- or all! -- of these investments to improve the quality of your life too.   WORK WITH ME I help lawyers take control of their practice, find fulfillment and create a life they love.

It's impossible to overstate the importance of intentional mindset when growing your law firm. The state of our emotions determines our capabilities. And our mindset determines the state of our emotions. So when I help lawyers make decisions about their plan to grow their law firm growths, the biggest obstacle to making better decisions and implementing those better decisions isn’t time or money or ability to take action – because the people I work with are action-takers. Their biggest obstacle is always mindset. In this episode, I’m going to give you the most common mindset obstacles I see, give you what you need to know to see if these mindset obstacles are impacting your practice, and I’ll give you solutions to these obstacles. You’ll learn: ✅ three common mindset mistakes that prevent law firm owners from making a plan to grow their practice ✅ the solutions to these mindset mistakes ✅ And if you're ready for more, I'm going to tell you about my new course “Precision Planning for Law Firm Growth: Your Step-by-Step Process to Create Your Most Profitable and Peaceful Year in the Law Yet” Listen in to begin making the shifts you need in your mindset to grow your practice.   WORK WITH ME I help lawyers take control of their practice, find fulfillment and create a life they love.

Today we’re going to smooth some rough edges causing you to waste time and money in your practice. It's hard to see these areas on our own for four reasons: Ignorance. You just don’t know what you don’t know. There’s no way to change something you haven’t even thought about changing. Inertia. If you’ve been practicing any length of time, you’ve had mentors or someone who told you how to do things. And then you just kept doing them. Isolation. You haven’t had exposure to new ideas or you haven’t had someone to talk through different areas of your practice, so you don’t even see there’s an issue. Impulse. Maybe you try something new, and it works at first, but at the first sign of it not “working” you give up and go back to the old system. You really haven’t given the new way a chance or evaluated how it could be altered to make it work. Your first impulse is just to go back to the old habit. So today I want to partner with you to shine a light on areas maybe you haven’t looked at before. There are an infinite amount of areas we could talk about, but I’ve chosen three areas for today’s episode. How you track and follow up on leadsPotential areas of your practice you can consolidate to save time and become more profitableHow to move cases along faster in your practice As we go along, I give you questions to ask yourself in your own practice, so even if your issues aren’t exactly like the ones I’m sharing in this episode, you can ask yourself how you can use this information to help you streamline your own practice.
