Solo Practitioner / Small Law 101

Do you want to be a lawyer, but also want to deal with compliance
issues, own/rent your workspace, and maybe put your face on a
bench or billboard (Better Call Saul style)?


If you answered yes to any one of these questions, solo
practitioner life or small law might be for you! In this episode,
Branden and Jelena cover all of your most pressing questions
related to solo and small law.


Listen and learn . . .
Do you have to work for someone else for a while before you
open your own firm, or can you jump into solo practice right out of
law school? How does making money as a lawyer work when you work
for yourself? Can small firms perform as well for clients as big
ones? How technology is changing small law practice? What areas of
law (niches!) might you practice as a solo practitioner or in a
small firm? Is it true that only people who couldn’t get a biglaw
job go to small firms or hang a shingle?
