Love the simplicity and find-ability of this system!

Outstanding video! ❤ Thank You!

I'm currently a 19 y/o law student (UK), looking to start a firm upon completion of the SQE. This has been a really useful and motivating channel for me, and it's good to hear it's a realistic goal! Cheers

Do you think it's possible to start your own real estate lawyer firm right out of school, with no experience?

Wow I subscribed this is the message I needed. Studied law but never practiced but this is the encouragement I needed to just do it even after being licensed for years. Thanks so much. I look forward for more content.

This is almost identical to mine, at least for what little litigation I do. I would add though a folder for "Engagement-Billing-Expenses". Probably the most important folder I have is called "To Review". The To Review file is a catch-all for all the documents and communications that come in for that matter. The person receiving the mail scans it and puts it in the "To Review" folder and puts a task on the attorney's task view saying to review that case. I call my drafts folder "Working Docs" and it contains anything from sample language, forms and drafts, plus I have a subfolder E-file notices. I do a lot of business startups where I have "Corp Book Docs" for everything that should be kept in client's corporate book. I also have "Recorded Docs" for real estate. Or "Executed Docs" for a contract case. Basically, you want a folder with PDF's of all the final executed documents for whatever kind of matter you are doing.

Brilliant content. Thank you for sharing. Australia is new to Clio Software so info like this is helpful when doing our due diligence 😃

Love this! Thanks, we will not be using Asana any more thanks to this.

I started a law firm in March of 2021 in South Africa. Enjoyed your video. Realy related..

This video is awesome! I find it extremely informative! Can you discuss fee structure more indepth? Such as when to use hourly vs flat fee vs retainer vs multiple simultaneously?

I just want to write a really good review for my Attorney. Plain and simple. Can you please help me out ?

Im 35 years old and Im going back to school to be a criminal lawyer. You hit it right on the spot, reason Im doing it is because of my past experiences and I don't want anyone else to go through the 3 years I had to go through

Thanks for making this video.

Very helpful thanks. I would add one further folder to your 7, namely: Bills!

I’m trying to use the MailDrop. I’d rather use it as a CC, than a BCC, so the responses also go in the file automatically. The mail drop address is ugly, is there any way to fix that?

I liked your web workflow that you shared, helped me see visually how you organize. Thanks for this!

Do you have a system for organizing files?

Interesting. What’s your thoughts on software like Clio that organises a lot of these things?

I don't like tracking numbers, so helpful to know what matters.

Helpful, thanks!

😊

Paying for advertising didn't pay off for me at all. It's much better to network with other lawyers, especially ones who don't practice in the same county or area of practice.

Google review is key. It's the first place that most people will come into contact with seeing your business.

Following up is like the not so secret secret, maybe because people have a harder time doing this step?

I agree with the website thing--there are so many over-complicated, unclear websites out there.

Have you tried pay-per-click advertising for your law firm?

This is so helpful! Thank you.

I like that you mentioned diverse strengths. Having a business partner could help in drawing out strengths that we don't personally have.

Number 10 is so important for a successful firm!

Interesting video!

Love all the flexibility in owning your own law firm.

I would have never expected it to be a low start up cost!

Do you own a law firm, or are you thinking of starting one?

Clear, concise roles is important for employees to work efficiently. Thanks for explaining this well.

This was broken down really nicely with some ideas

How is your legal staff doing? Any problem areas?

Hey Coach Law , you're making great videos ! I was wondering if I could help you enhance editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail which would help your video to reach a wider audience . Pls let me know what you think ?

I've been working to be more intentional about my email and only going in there a couple times a day. It's hard, but definitely helps me stay focused on the more important tasks!

What tasks give you the most energy? Are there any clients that you need to tweak your relationship?

Love the breakdown of task prioritization based on energy

I've never used Clio, thanks for showing us how it works!

This seems really intuitive for organization

👏

Thanks for watching! Here's the checklist: coachlaw.newzenler.com/f/owners-annual-checklist

I love a checklist. This is great!

This is helpful to see the breakdown and how you keep track of everything.

This makes me want to really get organized in my own business!

Thanks for sharing your detailed checklists. This is really helpful!

Super organized, thanks!

Wow! So many details. Great to have it all written down in checklist form!
