299: Streamline Your Law Practice

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 leads Potential areas of your practice you can consolidate to save time and become more profitable How 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.
