After interning with a personal injury law firm, Jonathan
Rosenfeld realized that this practice area was great for him.
Jonathan continued to work with various personal injury law firms
to gain more experience with mass tort cases, truck or car
accidents, dog bites, and other class action suits. 


The true magic of personal injury law is that any person, of any
age or occupation, can be involved in a personal injury accident.


Jonathan Rosenfeld began recording YouTube videos and podcasts to
better explain personal injury law. With greater knowledge,
clients will understand the flow of personal injury actions and
the patience needed for class action suits. An added benefit to
creating content about legal issues is that Jonathan is also
advertising for his law firm.


In this episode, Jonathan Rosenfeld encourages lawyers to work
hard and not rest on their school accolades. 


“Your J.D. is just a piece of paper,” exclaims Jonathan
Rosenfeld. Jonathan insists that becoming successful requires
hard work after law school. Regardless of whether you enjoyed law
school or found it easy, you must create the career that you want
when you are away from the classroom. 


Jonathan continues, “people who are successful, who have
long-term success, put in so much work that you would never
believe it.” We discuss how much time and effort is needed to
become an overnight success because success is not easy to
obtain.
