Speaking engagements and opportunities to show people what you know

Episode 35 of Building Your Law Practice with Jim Thompson and Nick Augustine Attorneys may not directly solicit clients, however, public and group speaking events are encouraged to make people in communities aware of how and when to hire a lawyer. Live speaking events and online presentations give your audience a chance to get to know you so if the need arises they can call on you for direct assistance or a referral to another lawyer or professional.
